The Judges
1959

A sketch on aged paper featuring a series of four male portraits in profile, with each figure facing to the right and drawn with varying degrees of detail. The figures appear contemplative and are rendered in a loose, expressive style with visible pencil strokes. The second figure from the left holds a book or a pad with illegible text. The artwork has a rough, unfinished quality, and the paper's edges are uneven.
