The Family
1928

A black and white woodcut print depicting two stylized figures, possibly representing a family, with exaggerated and angular features. The central figure, which appears to be a man, holds a child in his arms, while a woman stands beside him, her hand on the child's foot. The background is filled with abstract patterns and shapes, suggesting foliage or a natural setting. The artwork has a raw, expressive quality, with bold contrasts and a sense of dynamic movement.
