Giant Ice Bag - Cross Section, View II, New Haven
1969

This image features an abstract artwork with a combination of geometric and organic shapes. A prominent black silhouette resembling a chair or architectural structure is overlaid with translucent layers of orange and blue hues. Graph-like lines, numbers, and notations suggest a technical drawing, and there are signatures or inscriptions at the bottom left and right corners. The background is a white paper canvas with a faint circular outline near the edges.
