THE ARTWORK
Wolf Robe Cheyenne looks frontally into the space of Leonard Baskin’s lithograph. The light face stands apart from dark hair, while a few strokes define clothing and the tie at the neck.
Black is distributed unevenly, emphasising some features and leaving others lighter. This variation makes the portrait direct and intimate. The viewer’s gaze meets the subject’s, following an expression constructed through a few essential graphic accents.
