"Sterke man" (Strong Man) is an etching by Japanese artist Yo Sugano, created between 1937 and 1969. The print features a headless, muscular figure standing with its arms at its sides. The minimalist, almost cartoonish style of the drawing highlights Sugano's distinctive artistic voice. The work's simplicity and abstraction invite viewers to contemplate themes of strength, identity, and the human form.
