Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The sketch features a person's upper and lower body, including the torso, arms, and legs in a seated position. One leg is crossed over the other, and the arms are positioned as if resting. The facial features are vaguely outlined. The sketch has a minimalist style with a focus on body contours. The background is plain with visible paper textures and smudges, and a red stamp at the bottom with the words "ARCHIVE MATERIAL" and "RD." The figure appears unclothed as the sketch outlines the body's form.
