(Study of Figures Observing a Dead Man on a Dock in the Rain)
1899–1906

A vintage pen and ink drawing depicting four men in 19th-century attire, including top hats, conversing on a dockside. One man stands apart, leaning on a cane, while a dog lies on the ground nearby. The scene is sketched with dynamic lines suggesting a windy environment, with ships' masts faintly visible in the background.
