About this work

This drawing shows a group of people standing on a stage. The man and woman in the middle look important—they’re dressed in fancy clothes and jewelry. Around them, other figures hold things like swords and scrolls, while kids peek out from behind. The artist used lines to show light and shadows, making the scene look three-dimensional. This was done with a technique called etching. Next, look up etching to see how artists carve images into metal plates.
