A print portrait in black ink depicts a vertically oriented, stylized man with light skin from the shoulders up, looking to our right. Fractured, geometric planes and sharp, jagged lines form his face in stark contrast, one large eye dominating the profile. Coiled lines define his ear. Overlapping geometric planes and thick, black streaks fill the background. At the bottom right, stylized block letters read "M. Butting 1919."
