About this work

This drawing shows a group of stick-like figures tangled in lines. Their faces are simple circles with dots for eyes, and their bodies look stiff and connected by messy, crisscrossing marks. The background is mostly blank, with just a few tiny shapes like a bird or a tree at the bottom left. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1957. The lines feel rough and uneven, like they were scratched into the surface. Next, look up etching to see how this technique works.
