This image shows a woman with her arms raised, holding a cloth over her head. Her body is turned slightly, and the lines are rough and textured. The background is dark and blurry, making her the focus. The artist used a scratchy method to create this print, which gives it a grainy look. This technique is called drypoint. Look up drypoint to see how artists make prints like this.
