Braque
Two pieces of black paper and a third sheet with imitation wood grain paper are layered over a drawing of a guitar and other sheets of paper in this vertical collage. The guitar’s curved body and the lower part of the strings are drawn in black on tan paper, while the sound hole and rest of the strings are drawn with white lines on a rectangular piece of black paper that lies on top. Straight and angled lines protrude from the sides and top of the guitar with light hatching to suggest shading. A sheet of paper is drawn over the bottom of the guitar with hand lettering that reads, “Aria de Bach.” Another black rectangle overlaps the paper on the left and has a long, white, vertical line broken by a C-shape. The paper patterned with wood grain lies on top of the black paper and resembles a long triangle with its point cut off. The artist signed the lower right, “G Braque.”
