Old Doc 1937

"Old Doc" is a 1937 lithograph by Nicholas Panesis, an American artist known for his depictions of rural life. This print, measuring 225 x 328 mm, features a detailed rendering of an elderly man in a cap, seated outside a small, simple dwelling. The figure is shown with a long white beard, meticulously working on something with a knife, and a small tree with white blossoms is in the foreground. The stark black and white tones contribute to the solemn and contemplative atmosphere of the artwork, emphasizing the loneliness and quietude of the scene.
