This print shows a big, bearded face floating above a quiet landscape. Below it, there’s a house with a flat roof and a few trees, plus a road winding through hills. The colors are mostly browns and blues, with a simple, sketchy style. The face looks like it’s made of thick, dark lines—almost like a woodcut. The artist used bold shapes to make it stand out against the softer background. Look up Anton Kannemeyer next to see more of his bold, graphic work.
