The Needles
Description
Composition in black and white. Contour lines, parallel, thick and shaded. Man's head, hand holding needle and spools. The figure's head is in the center of the support, the face has a dramatic expression, with tears in the left eye that appears triangular, and the right eye is longer, showing the retina. Eyebrows and nose represented, mouth open, showing some teeth. In front of the figure, hand closed, holding a needle and extended towards the figure's head. On the right, two spools of thread standing upright and one lying on the ground. Suggestion of thread hanging from the figure's left ear, to the hand holding the needle. Plain background.
