About this work

This sketch shows a loose, wavy line drawing in yellow. A woman stands near a table with a chair and a vase, her body slightly turned. The background has rough, uneven marks, and the whole scene feels quick and sketchy. The artist used a printing method where ink is applied to a flat stone, then pressed onto paper—this is called lithography. Try looking up *lithography* to see how it works.
