The Fall of Man (Der Sündenfall)

About this work

This sketch shows two people standing close together. Their faces are blurry, but you can see their bodies pressed side by side. The lines are rough and uneven, like quick scribbles. One person wears a dark coat, and the other has a lighter dress with a red stripe. The artist used a method where ink is pressed into carved wood, then stamped onto paper. This makes the lines look jagged and uneven. Next, check out woodcut to see how this printing technique works.
