Illustration to Balzac, "La Bourse" 

Imre Reiner's "Illustration to Balzac, "La Bourse"" is a powerful black and white drawing that features a woman in profile, partially obscured by a large, dark form. The drawing style is gestural and expressive, with strong lines and hatching that create a sense of energy and movement. The background is filled with a series of vertical lines which creates a feeling of depth and space. The inclusion of a vase with a flower near the figure further adds to the mystery of this piece, which could be interpreted as a visual representation of a woman's thoughts and inner world. This artwork exemplifies the artist's unique style and his skill in capturing the essence of human emotion through graphic expression.
