Subway Passage
1950

A detailed black and white etching depicting an interior view of a room with a complex pattern of intersecting lines creating a sense of depth and perspective. The lines suggest the texture of a wire mesh covering the walls and ceiling, with a window at the far end casting light into the space. The artwork is mounted on off-white paper with a handwritten number in the top right corner.
