Description

The piece is a Linocut that depicts a black crow taking up the foreground facing the right. The crow takes up 1/2 of the composition and is highlighted with grey-blue tones. The ground is a light rust color speckled with black. In the center of the upper 1/3 of the composition, there is a two-story white house with 2 oblong bushes in front of the building. The bushes are the same color as the highlights on the crow. There is a red car parked on the building's right and a white car parked on the building's left side. Power lines occupy the upper 1/4 of the composition and run diagonally from the upper right down to the piece's left side. The sky is a dull orange and is speckled with black as well.
