Item Details
ink
An ink drawing on paper of travelers by listed artist Louis Wolchonok (1898 – 1973). This drawing depicts a pair of travelers struggling to walk along a sandy shore, as their forms are reflected on the water below. The bearded man clutches at the child before him, who appears to be fainting. The drawing is composed of loose, truncated brush strokes reinforced by thin, frenetic marks, creating a sense of energy in the piece. To the lower right corner of the composition is an ink signature. The drawing is presented under glass in a distressed wooden frame featuring a linen liner and gold tone fillet. To the verso is affixed hanging wire.
