Artist, American, 1909 - 2011

The image shows the upper half of a man's body seated on a wooden chest against a wood-paneled wall. He is to the right of the image, leaning back with his hands in his lap. He has short, dark hair, a clean-shaven face, and is wearing a dark long-sleeve shirt with a white turtleneck underneath and light-colored pants. The wall behind him has various posters and photographs of Elvis Presley. On the chest are a scale model of a white car and a framed picture, with the chest labeled "ABS CORV". The background suggests a personal or private space filled with memorabilia and items of interest.
