Clelia Cattaneo, Daughter of Marchesa Elena Grimaldi is a 1928 ink by Timothy Cole, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a young girl standing still. She’s dressed in a long fur coat, a lace dress, and a ribbon at her waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she holds her hands together in front of her. The dark background makes her clothes look even softer and more detailed. This is a wood engraving, which means the artist carved the image into wood and then printed it. Look up engraving to see how it works.
