Figure in a Doorway
1965

Pencil sketch of a nude figure standing with their back to the viewer, framed within a square border on a sheet of paper. The figure appears contemplative or introspective, positioned against a backdrop of vertical lines that suggest a curtain or a textured wall. The artwork is signed at the bottom.
