DescriptionThis is a key stone lithograph printed in all black on white paper. It depicts a figure suggesting a woman with a staved barrel chest, a striped skirt, blocks with stars for breasts, and a helmet with a mechanical profile facing right. It hovers over a yellow platform set in a bare wood floor with two loose planks that curve up. Around it are various juggling objects: 9 balls on the floor at lower left, five balls clustered atop an upside down pin in the center, and five balls in the air along the right edge, two pins on the platform, a hat with a ball in the air, a red box with a black star next to it, plates and a cup. A stick with twirling plates and a ball on the left.Provenance
