This print shows a rough, dark shape against a black background. The lines are jagged and uneven, like carving into wood. Light brown ink stands out in spots, making a face or figure that’s hard to place. The artist used a woodcut method—carving into wood, then pressing ink into the grooves. The date in the corner reads 6/15, but the piece was made later. Next, check out woodcut to see how this technique works.
