Artist, American, 1909 - 1982

The image shows a man in a standing position. He is positioned in profile, facing to the right, and is captured mid-action with one arm raised, gripping a large handle, while the other hand holds another handle at his waist. The man has short hair and is not facing directly towards the viewer, so his facial features are mostly in shadow or profile. He is wearing a short-sleeved shirt under a protective apron that covers his front. He appears to be operating a piece of machinery, possibly an industrial press, indicated by the visible gears and levers around him. There is no visible jewelry. The background consists of large windows with a grid pattern, allowing diffused light to fill the space.
