Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

This is a sketch of two overlapping figures. The central figure's torso is visible with a slightly tilted head, minimal facial features, and hair suggested by simple lines. Limbs are depicted with loose strokes. The figures appear to be reclining or intertwining, with one arm of the central figure bent behind the head. The sketch is monochrome on plain paper, with a red 'RD' stamp in the upper left corner. The simplicity of lines creates an impressionistic view.
