a) -Un farman? -non, c'est un boche. (recto); b) Sketch of Figure (verso)
This is a drawing of two figures in a minimalistic style. The drawing depicts one figure resting against another, who appears to be supporting them. The figure providing support is sketched with attention to the clothing details and a helmet. The gazes and interactions between the figures suggest a poignant and emotional dynamic. The artwork is composed with light and confident strokes, capturing movement and posture with simplicity. The negative space adds to the emotional resonance. Handwritten text below the figures provides narrative context. The artist has signed the work.
