DescriptionThe side of a house, the nine dark brown boards, almost black. At upper left a window with black cross-bars shows a section of either a beige Japanese screen held together by brown slats (? Dowels?) or a series of shorter vertical boards making up the wall of the house. On the right, the monochrome, even darker brown, image of a ponytailed girl jumping rope. She wears slacks and a short-sleeve tee shirt.Provenance
