Torso and Head of Two Figures 1928

"Torso and Head of Two Figures" is a 1928 ink drawing by American artist Stuart Davis. The work is a study in geometric abstraction, using bold black lines and stark shapes to represent the human form. The drawing's composition is dynamic, with overlapping planes and angular forms, which give it a sense of movement and energy. Davis's work often explored themes of modern life and urban landscapes, drawing inspiration from the dynamism of cityscapes. This piece reflects a shift towards a more geometric aesthetic, characteristic of the artist's later work.
