Card Case 1935 - 1942

"Card Case" is a simple line drawing by Daniel Marshack, executed between 1935 and 1942. The drawing depicts an open card case, rendered with a minimalist approach. The subject is a commonplace object, yet Marshack's delicate lines imbue it with a sense of quiet observation. The artwork's composition, with the card case situated off-center against a plain background, creates a sense of space and emphasizes the object's form.
