a beatnik of 1920
c. 1920

Ink sketch of a woman in profile, standing and smoking a cigarette. She is wearing a long dress with stripes and has her hair styled in a bun. There is a speech bubble coming from her mouth, but it is empty. The bottom right corner of the sketch includes a handwritten note that reads "a breath of 1920 E. L. Kirchner."
