The Holmes Children
c. 1963

An elongated horizontal artwork featuring four silhouetted profile portraits in pairs facing a central plant with two stems and leaves. The portraits are rendered in a stippled effect, creating the illusion of depth and texture. The background is an aged, off-white paper, and there is text at the bottom left corner, indicating the artist and possibly the title or description of the work.
