Yawn
1955

A black and white artwork depicting a man with his arms crossed above his head, hands gripping the opposite upper arms, with a pained or intense expression on his face. The style appears to be a detailed charcoal or graphite drawing with strong contrasts and textures. There's a signature at the bottom right corner.
