About the Item

A shy and dirty man stands alone in a muted landscape, his hand timidly resting on his collarbone. His clothes are disheveled, a dark pair of overalls slouching across his too-narrow frame. Benno has made it impossible to tell whether the man is wearing a shirt or not. This harrowing painting in gouache on paper is paired with a wide mat and gilded gold frame.
