Artist, American, born 1944

The image shows a partial view of a person's body from the chest downwards. Their torso, arms, and part of their legs are visible. The person is standing with one arm bent at the elbow, resting their forearm on their other hand, which hangs down by their side. They are wearing a dark, textured suit or coat with a wrap-style front. Their hand is relaxed at their side, with pale skin that contrasts with the clothing. The figure stands against a red wall that is weathered and peeling. No visible jewelry or objects are being held.
