William Kent

In Memoriam
1964

This is a graphic print with a bold red, white, and blue color scheme, featuring the dates "1917-1963" at the top. The upper half is red with a draped window and a candle on a sill, while the lower half is blue with white stars and a broken, disjointed figure. Below the figure, the words "IN MEMORIAM" are prominently displayed. The print has a rough, textured edge, suggesting it may be on a piece of torn paper. There are artist signatures and notations on the bottom right.
