Still Life
1962

This is a black and white abstract print featuring a variety of shapes and textures. On the left, there are three vertical lines above a geometric shape resembling a half-opened clamshell, next to a rough-textured rectangle. On the right, a series of irregular, angular lines form a structure akin to a ladder. Centered at the bottom is a collection of shapes within a larger rectangle, including circles, ovals, and rectangles, some filled with patterns. The print is dated "7 23 62" and signed by the artist, with the title "STILL-LIFE" and the year "1962" inscribed at the bottom right.
