The Sidewalk
1917

A black and white etching depicting a group of people on a sidewalk, with a focus on a central figure bending over towards a child. The scene is crowded and has an urban feel, with various individuals engaged in different activities, suggesting a bustling street life. The artwork is signed by the artist in the lower right corner and has a title inscribed at the bottom center. The paper shows signs of aging and handling, with pinholes at the corners.
