Untitled
1935

An etching with abstract and cubist elements, featuring a composition of overlapping and fragmented shapes and forms that suggest figures and objects. The artwork is monochromatic, with fine lines and cross-hatching creating texture and depth. It is centered on a piece of cream-colored paper with a visible plate mark around the image.
