Cobbler
Description
Composition in ochre, white, earthy, rose and black. Smooth texture. A cobbler sitting on a bench, occupying the entire area of the composition, against rose background. The cobbler is facing forward with the head tilted to the right: he is dark skinned, facial features just outlined, very long neck. His arms are folded, his right hand holds a blue shoe, his left hand holds an undefined dark instrument and his legs are spread. He wears sleeveless t-shirt, ochre pants and black shoes. On the floor, between the legs of the cobbler, sickle shaped instrument. Rose toned background.
