Scene of a Man with a Sword: Two graphite drawings that are hard to make out. The first side shows a man holding a sword with his fist raised in the air and his boot resting on the body of a man on the ground. There appear to be some unfinished figures in the background. The scene on the back of the paper appears to show two figures but it is very hard to make out.
