The image shows a person on a rocky surface, reclined and looking towards the horizon. They are naked with a muscular build, short hair, and no accessories. In the background, there is a sailboat with two masts on the left side. The sky has streaked clouds, contrasting with the figure. The artwork is in a monochrome, linocut style.

Bather

Rockwell Kent · 1931 · wood engraving on wove paper ·  Accession ID  2024.18.1

This drawing depicts abstract figures. It features two stylized figures in a block print style; one is holding a flute-like instrument. The figures are outlined in black against a white background, with detailed line work creating texture in their clothing and environment. One figure wears hoop earrings and has a spiky hairstyle, while the other has a beard and plays the flute. A vertical line divides the composition, with jagged lines adding energy. Positive and negative space and a limited color palette are used in this artwork.
