Note: Dado often wrote phonetically to make comprehension easier, which explains the spelling of the title. The abbreviation "HER" for Herouval is also visible on this work. One can appreciate here the execution of a skeletal bird in profile with a piercing gaze. Dado plays with negative space, which is extremely interesting here?with the sketch of the nose, for example, or the character's face (forehead, eyes, nose).
We would like to thank Ms. Amarante Szidon for kindly providing information regarding this work.
