Artist, American, 1911 - 1989

The image displays a circular shape with intricate, wavy lines and ridges in an abstract pattern. The design within the circle resembles a stylized flower or sea creature, with petal-like elements radiating from the center. The combination of curves and ridges creates depth, making the design emerge slightly from the surface. The circular form gives it an organic, medallion-like appearance. The central motif may evoke objects like a tulip or a fossilized shell. The words "CHARLOTTE" and "ANGUS" are also present.
