Untitled,, [Dec. 18, 1936]

Lubell 3/9: 179

One of eight ink drawings of people participating in a WPA sit-in strike, and originally housed in a folder labelled “Sit-down strike 1935 or ’36, Chicago”. Each is of a different subject, but all are similar designs, with thick black lines and little shading. This is of a woman sleeping on a blanket, with a book and a bucket to one side. Her skirt has white gouache highlights. Sketches on verso of a man and of hands. See Lubell 172-181 for drawings in the Chicago sit-in, sit-down strike or sit-in protest.
