notes: label: Description
content: This collage depicts an African American male figure beneath a tree with his mouth open and his arms crossed over his chest. The man faces an abstracted monumental human-like figure. This abstract figure appears a white shape with two truncated arms and an abstracted head, above swaths of black and brown atop a square base in blocks and stripes of blue, orange and yellow. The two figures appear on a green hillside under a tree that appears to have fruit or flowers in red and yellow. It is signed by the artist on the front bottom right corner.
