Alfred Bendiner
Alfred Bendiner, (Market Woman), El Embassy Room, Hotel Guatemala

1960

About the Item

This ink drawing by Alfred Bendiner just proves yet again that he just had to keep on drawing and drawing. But clearly the package of the menu cover and pages was worth keeping -- a happy memory perhaps. The Market Woman strides confidently forward. On her head is the usual straw basket, but this time besides two men, there's all the goods to sell, including chickens, a rabbit and at least one fish.
