Art Alone
© Center for Jewish Art, Photographer: Tartakovsky, Sergey, 01.1992
A generalized silhuette of a man's figure is left lighter than the dark background. It is modelled inside using mostly the natural texture of vertical damp patchs. Only the thin hands that are joined below and the thin feet that are making a step are clearly discernable. He has a face of a Jew,with wide eyes looking at the spectator.The line of the wooden collar devides the head and the body.
