Form Derived From a Cube
c. 1981

A geometric illustration of a house-like structure composed of a cube and a triangular prism on top, rendered in fine black lines on a white background. The cube's sides are filled with dense cross-hatching and vertical lines, while the construction lines of the shapes are faintly visible, suggesting an architectural drawing or a study in perspective.
