Charles Cecil Pollock

Artist, American, 1902 - 1988

The image depicts a man standing next to a well. He has a bald head and sharp facial features, wearing a white shirt with rolled-up sleeves and dark trousers. He is barefoot and leaning on the well, with a serious expression on his face. Next to him lies a white bucket, and the well is equipped with a winding mechanism. The background shows a rustic landscape with sparse vegetation, fencing, and shrubs.
