Boss of the Block
c. 1939

A black and white etching of a woman standing with her back to the viewer, looking over her shoulder at a street scene with buildings and a small dog in the distance. The woman is wearing a dark dress with a shawl over her shoulders, and her hair is styled in a bun. The artwork has a vintage feel, and the artist's signature is visible at the bottom right.
