Artist, American, born 1896

The image shows a close-up view of a person's face and the upper portion of their shoulders. The individual is positioned with their head slightly turned to the side, capturing a side profile yet mostly oriented forward. Their facial features include large, wide eyes, a prominent nose, and slightly open lips. The person’s short hair is partly covered by a hood-like garment that envelops their head and shoulders. A circular, spiral-shaped earring is visible on one ear. The background is a textured dark surface, contrasting with the lighter tones of the face and hood. The image has a dramatic and moody appearance due to the shading and textures used.
