Description

27 x 33 in. A monochromatic portrait executed in charcoal and blended graphite on wove paper, depicting an elderly woman seated with eyeglasses and a ruffled bonnet, engaged in knitting with needles in hand. The composition utilizes extensive tonal blending and subtractive lifting to create light and shadow across the figure and atmospheric background. Signed lower right: Saundra Gerber. The drawing is presented under glass with a white mat within a molded black-painted wooden frame featuring a raised inner bead.
