About this work

This sketch shows two men in a rocky, open space. One man is shirtless, wearing a belt and a hat, holding a cross high in the air. The other man is draped in a loose cloth, has a crown of thorns, and is reaching his arms out. The lines are rough and quick, like a hurried sketch. The crown of thorns and the cross suggest a biblical scene, but the style feels modern and raw. The artist used a printing method that lets the lines stay loose and sketchy.
