Description
Drawing of nine human figures circling a yellow drum in the centre. All have their heads pointed towards the drum, their bodies stretched out towards the edges of the paper. Seven of them are forward facing, and wearing snowsuits and boots. Colours of suits and boots are dark yellow, dark green, red, turquoise and dark brown. All have oval-shaped eyes, straight brows, slits for nostrils and open oval-shaped mouths. Two figures, towards the right side of the drawing, are done in profile with dark green parkas and matching pants and boots. Their faces are coloured yellow and both have bundles on their backs. A small tenth figure crouches beside the drum, hitting it with a drumstick. The figure is coloured black, with red and green undertones, has a pointed face and red hand. Syllabics written in the bottom right corner in turquoise. Pencil inscription on back, in bottom right corner.
