Louis Lozowick

Safed, Israel
1962

An etching depicting a shadowy, narrow alleyway with a figure standing in the distance. The architecture suggests an old, possibly Mediterranean setting with textured walls and a balcony overhead. In the foreground, a disembodied sculpted head rests on the ground, adding a surreal element to the scene. The artwork is signed and dated at the bottom.
