Artist, American, 1908 - 1994

Drawing of a construction site with figures engaged in building activities. It uses a high-contrast technique, likely a woodcut or linocut print. Large steel beams and industrial structures dominate the composition, with forms and details accentuated by dramatic lighting. The sky has bold, jagged cloud forms surrounding the architectural elements, adding a dynamic background to the scene.
