About this work

This print shows a woman sitting in a chair, wrapped in a thick coat with a high collar. She holds a small object in her hands, maybe a flower or a folded cloth. The background is dark and blurry, so you can’t see much else—just a hint of a window or doorway behind her. The artist used lines and shading to create depth, focusing on her face and hands. The texture looks rough, like it was made by scratching into a metal plate. Want to learn more? Try looking up etching.
