Field Hand [verso]

1985

Andrew Wyeth

Artist, American, 1917 - 2009

A sketch of the profile of a man on the far side of a tubular shape is at the center of this horizontal sheet. The man’s face is shaded to show the planes of his high cheekbones and full lips. He wears a floppy, brimmed hat. The space around him has a few lines to indicate a hill in the distance and the volume of the object behind which he is shown. Some strokes and dabs of ash-gray are along the bottom and right edges of the sheet.
