- Description
- This is a mixed media portrait of a man with a pigeon emerging from the top of his head, framed within a red frame in the shape of a birdcage. The graphite portrait shows the man from the neck up. His head is turned a quarter-turn to his right and angled slightly downward. He covers the upper part of his face with the palm and fingers of his right hand. His right arm is shown emerging from the bottom of the birdcage from the wrist up. The man’s face has a slight mustache and stubble along the jawline. The pigeon’s feathers emerge from the top of the man’s head. The bird is formed from the neck up, and its head is in profile to the viewer, gazing to the left. The portrait is enclosed in a frame of red paint in the shape of a birdcage. The two sides consist of narrow red lines while the bottom is a thick red line. The top of the “cage” is semicircular with a domed top. A rounded red finial and two decorative curly spirals complete the top of the dome. The artist's signature "Ruck" appears along the man's neck.
