Man at the end of the pier. Tranquil sea. Cartoon in ink and stipple. Style of Max Pechstein
A black and white ink drawing depicts a man in a suit walking away from the viewer on a wooden pier or boardwalk, his back to the viewer. The pier extends into the distance, with a railing on both sides. To the left of the pier is a vast expanse of water with ripples and waves, representing a lake or ocean. On the right side, parallel to the pier, is a narrow channel of water, beyond which lies a hilly shoreline dotted with trees and several houses, one prominently white with a dark roof. The sky above is mostly clear with a few scattered, elongated clouds. The overall style is illustrative and clean, with strong outlines and cross-hatching used to create texture and depth, particularly in the water and foliage.
