Pen and ink sketch of a nude male figure twisting in a spiral on cream paper, one arm raised, with a small rock at lower right.

Dream of a Broncho #9, pen and ink figure study

A pen and ink drawing on cream paper shows a nude male figure curled in a tight spiral, one arm raised high and the other reaching toward the viewer. Faint loose strokes suggest motion around the body, and a small rocky shape sits at the lower right edge.
