Description
Composition in black and white. Dark and contour lines areas. Composition representing eight faces spread over the entire area of support. All are set for coarse and schematic facial features, finding himself very wide eyes, noses represented by a triangle and almost all mouths ajar and thick lips. In front are four faces, three front and one profile to the left; further back are four more, this part covered by the front, seeing-especially the eyes. Areas with intersecting lines and areas of small squares suggest the clothes of the people.
