People in a Park
1919–1923

A black and white etching depicting a group of people sitting closely together, with one individual in the center reading a book. The figures are dressed in attire that suggests the image is from an earlier era, and the style of the etching gives it a textured, sketch-like appearance. The artwork is centered on a larger, blank paper canvas, with a handwritten inscription at the bottom left corner.
