Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Bicycle Forks)
1899–1906

A sketch on aged paper featuring a series of abstract figures that resemble robotic forms or machinery, drawn with black ink. Some figures appear to have antenna-like protrusions on top, and the artwork has a loose, gestural quality. The paper shows signs of wear and staining, adding to the vintage or antique feel of the piece.
