This small green drawing shows a woman standing in a doorway. She’s holding a white fan and wearing a long dark dress. The background is simple—a wall and a door frame—with light streaming in from outside. The artist used a scratchy, sketchy style to make the scene feel quick and alive. The green ink stands out against the pale paper, giving it a quiet, mysterious mood. If you like this style, check out etching to see how artists create prints like this.
