CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION
A cartoon image in black and white depicts a figure standing under an umbrella. The figure is wearing a hat and trench coat (clothing), coloured in solid black, and stands with their head turned left and their right hand held out to the left, as if to see if it is raining. The umbrella is solid black. The figure stands above a cross-hatched shadow with a defined, irregular shape but otherwise the background is white.
