The Tax Collector

Colorful pen and ink. On the left a horse jockey type with a crop or walking stick and a rosy nosed, shady sort of gentleman. They are walking toward a Mexican fisherman who appears to have his attention on something in the hand of another man. A third person looks on. Cross hatching and scratchy lines leave perfectly balanced negative spaces, mostly clouds. It looks as the sun might be coming up on the far right. Signed lower left, 1955.
