Artist, American, 1908 - 1976

The image shows vertical streaks and lines descending from the top, resembling elongated icicles, paired with a circular formation near the bottom. This abstract composition creates a texture similar to frost on a winter window, with the circle at the bottom resembling a frosty globe or moon. The contrast between the lighter and darker areas enhances the perception of depth.
