Description

A wood-engraved image on cream paper shows a large husked seed pod or shell floating above a small perched bird surrounded by thin branches and leaves, rendered entirely in fine black линework against the pale ground. A single dot or seed hangs in the empty space between the pod and the bird. Above the image, a two-line letterpress text in gray type reads "Every time was different, I suppose that's why he loved it so much." Andy Farkas, *Float*, wood engraving and letterpress text, date unknown.
