Die Komponistin Sonia Friedman (The Composer Sonia Friedman)

Walter Gramatté

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a monochrome print of a person with only the upper half of their body visible. They are positioned in a three-quarter view, facing to the left, with their head bowed down and their hands resting on a surface in front of them. The person has prominent, angular facial features with a pronounced nose and downcast eyes, framed by straight, dark hair that falls to the sides of their face. They are wearing a dark garment with long sleeves, which covers most of their body, and the hands are detailed with dark nails. There are no visible elements of jewelry or objects held. The background is an abstract pattern of lines and blocks.
