About this work

This print shows two people climbing ladders into a tree full of fruit. The branches are thick with leaves and round shapes that look like apples or pears. On the left, a full moon hangs in the dark sky. On the right, a bright sun shines over a basket of fruit and a few scattered dots. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1952. The word "FRASCONI" is stamped at the top, likely the artist’s name. Try looking up woodcut to see how this print was made.
