About this work

This black-and-white woodcut shows four stick-like figures in a dim room. One man stands with his arms raised, another leans against a wall, and the other two sit or crouch. The lines are sharp, almost like a sketch, with heavy shadows and no color. The artist carved this from wood, a method that makes each mark stand out. The figures look stiff and simple, but their poses tell a quiet story. Next, look up woodcut to see how artists carve images into wood.
