About this work

This print shows a woman’s face in profile, her hand raised to her mouth like she’s keeping a secret. She’s wearing a headscarf with a big, fancy headdress on top—lots of swirls and curls. The lines are scratchy and dark, almost like a sketch, with some lighter shading on her skin and the headdress. The artist used a mix of thick and thin lines to make the image feel both detailed and sketchy. The headdress looks like it’s made of paper or lace, with lots of tiny patterns.
