Amerikanische Malerei 1913–1931, 1925

This painting depicts a man seated on a dark surface with his body facing the left, looking out at us from under the brim of his hat. He has light skin and a white mustache, and he wears dark clothing and white shoes. His gray cap has a golden headlamp on it, and a pipe is clamped in his thin, downturned mouth. His hands are dirty, covered in streaks of black and gray, and he holds a silver pail with a metal container on it. The background is a blend of black, gray, and dark blue.
