About this work

This drawing shows two men moving wooden crates. One sits on a bicycle with a loaded cart, while the other pushes a similar cart full of crates. The crates are stacked high in the background, some leaning against walls. The whole scene is drawn in black ink with a textured, woven background. The artist used tiny crisscrossed lines to build up shadows and shapes, giving it depth. This style is called cross-hatching. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
