About this work

This drawing shows four crosses made of rough, blue-gray lines on light paper. The crosses are tilted in different directions, overlapping in places. Thin red lines connect them like wires or axes. The artist used simple crayon strokes to create a sense of depth and weight. The lines look uneven, as if drawn quickly by hand. Next, check out Aleksandr Rodchenko for more of his work.
