Artist, American, 1917 - 2009

This is a drawing of a person moving towards the left, appearing to lean forward against the wind. The person is highly stylized, with elongated limbs, and they are wearing a tall, thin hat. They seem to be carrying a large sack over one shoulder that obscures their face. In the top left corner is a circular shape accompanied by thin lines, giving the impression of a sun or moon partially covered by clouds. The person is walking on the tips of their toes, and their legs cast a shadow on the flat ground below them. The background is mostly blank beige paper.
