Art Historian's Analysis:

       "The large white head that we see at the center of Catalogue Number 27 has been drawn on a black ground that partially covers the surface of the cardboard used for this painting. We can assume that it is partly animal from the peaked ears that arise from the white center on either side of the head. The eyes have been drawn in concentric circles in several colors —green, yellow, orange, blue, and purple. These colors are repeated in the repetitive outlining of the figure’s open mouth, inside of which we see two rows of carefully drawn teeth along the top and bottom. The bridge of the nose is drawn simply with two blue, narrowly-spaced parallel lines that terminate in an oval shape punctuated by two circles to represent nostrils; the resulting shape —read in conjunction with the pointed ears at the top of the head —appears more like a snout than a nose. There are several examples in the known works of Basquiat where the nostrils of the nose are positioned in a similar fashion (e.g., Head of a Madman) and the eyes have been circled multiple times in different colors (e.g., Hannibal and Dustheads).
