This drawing shows a simple figure with long hair standing on a small base. Above its head are two curved lines, like a pair of horns or antlers. The figure has no clothes, and the whole scene is drawn in black lines on a light background. The figure looks like it’s holding up the horns, almost like a mirror. The style is very flat, with no shading or depth. If you like this kind of drawing, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like it.
