(Rifleman Holding a Head)
c. 1917–1920

Illustration of a confident man in a classic swashbuckler pose, wearing a white shirt with rolled-up sleeves, black pants, and boots, with a belt and a sword at his side. He is holding a hat in one hand, which is raised above his head, and a staff in the other hand, which rests on the ground. The background is plain, highlighting the figure.
