About this work

You see a drawing of a temple with trees hanging over it and a junk painted on a rock. The temple's façade is detailed, with steps leading up to the entrance. The drawing is done with a lot of fine lines, which creates texture and depth, similar to the technique of cross-hatching. You can look up more about this technique, like cross-hatching.
