Artist, Russian, 1887 - 1985

This image showcases swirling black lines and shapes creating an abstract composition. The lines form what could resemble a profile of a face or head with curly hair on the right. A large yellow-tinted circular shape is at the upper left. Green swirls and red splotches are seen below. The arrangement allows viewers to perceive familiar objects within the abstract forms.
