The Big Shadow
1951, printed 1952

A detailed etching depicting a rustic scene with a large tree in the foreground and a weathered wooden barn in the background. The barn's exterior shows signs of wear and age, with some planks missing, and there is an assortment of debris scattered on the ground. The artwork conveys a sense of rural tranquility and abandonment.
