About this work

This image shows 30 small, square portraits arranged in a grid. Each face is drawn in a simple, sketchy style with brown lines on a light background. The faces look similar but aren’t identical—some have glasses, others don’t, and their expressions are neutral. The artist used a technique where ink is transferred onto paper through a stone or metal plate. This method creates a slightly rough, handmade look. Check out lithography to see how it works.
