Net Menders
1945

A black and white sketch depicts a group of fishermen working under a shelter on a sunny day. One stands in the foreground with his back to the viewer, wearing a hat, while others are seated or standing, handling nets and ropes. Sunlight filters through the shelter, casting bright areas and shadows across the scene. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
