About this work

This looks like a faded drawing on wood. The center shows a rough circle with a simple, uneven line drawing inside—maybe a face or symbol. The wood itself is dark and cracked, with some paint chipping away. The drawing is very basic, almost like a quick sketch. The top has two labels: one with a small painted design and another with the number "M.S. 38913." If you like simple, old drawings, check out cross-hatching.
