Artist, American, 1913 - 1997

Two men are shown standing on a sidewalk, with a brick building in the background. The man on the left has his hand raised near his face, while the man on the right is slightly behind him, and both are dressed in suits. Two women sit on the stairs of the building, wearing dresses. The setting appears to be urban, with shadows on the pavement and signs of wear on the steps and brick surfaces.
