Café Scene
c. 1915, posthumous print

An etching of two individuals seated at a table, engaged in what appears to be a conversation or a game, with one person gesturing while the other looks on. The artwork is characterized by expressive line work and cross-hatching, creating a sense of depth and texture. The print is centered on a larger sheet of paper with deckled edges.
