Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image is a monochromatic sketch of a person in profile. The person is standing with a slight forward lean, weight on one foot, while the other leg is extended behind. The face and hair are indistinct with rough brush strokes outlining a vague shape of long hair tied back. The person appears unclothed with fluid body contours. The emphasis is on the figure's movement and gesture rather than detailed features. The background is blank with a stamp labeled 'ARCHIVAL MATERIAL RD' to the left of the figure.
