Passante
1965

A black and white etching depicting a solitary figure standing in a darkened doorway or opening, with their back to the viewer. The figure appears contemplative or introspective. The image has a heavy use of shadow and texture, creating a somber and introspective mood. The artwork is bordered by a wide margin of blank paper, and there is a signature at the bottom right corner.
