Untitled (Religous Scene) 1937

Archie L. Musick’s 1937 *Untitled (Religious Scene)* is a black and white drawing of a scene from the Bible. The image depicts three figures, two of whom are men in robes, the other a seated woman in a draped garment. The figures stand before an intricate patterned rug and an open doorway. The artist’s use of heavy lines and shading creates a sense of depth and solemnity. Musick is known for his religious artworks, and this piece exemplifies his interest in depicting biblical narratives with dramatic realism.
