DescriptionThe print functions as a black and white “drawing” of the cropped figural form of a human being. It depicts a hand resting on a chair and a partial bare torso, with a hint of clothing on the right arm, and the chair represented only by a detail.Copyright© The George and Helen Segal Foundation / Licensed by VAGA at Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York
