Three Men 1921

"Three Men" (1921) by Ossip Zadkine is a striking Cubist drawing. The artist, known for his sculptures and drawings, portrays three men's heads, reduced to simplified geometric forms. The faces, rendered in shades of gray and white, are juxtaposed against a dark background. The use of charcoal and pastel adds a textural quality to the drawing, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow. Zadkine's work often reflects the horrors of war, and this piece, though abstract, evokes a sense of somber introspection.
