About this work

You see a brown vase with pink roses on a deep red background. The cloth under it has a busy floral pattern. The print has crisp edges and soft color blends. This is a lithograph. That means the artist drew on stone with greasy ink. Then they pressed paper onto it to make copies. The way the shadows fall shows careful planning. Check out Avakian, Hrandt next—he made many prints like this.
