About this work

This print shows a woman standing on a red square. She’s dressed in a simple black outfit with a necklace of red dots. Behind her is a wall with a window showing a blurry view of water and land. To the right, a small plant in a blue pot sits on the floor. The artist used a woodcut method, where the image is carved into wood and then inked. This gives the print its bold lines and flat colors. Look up woodcut to see how this technique works.
