This is a wood engraving from 1928 called *Piggotts Roads* by Eric Gill. It’s a quiet scene of country roads and fields. Gill was British and worked in the early 1900s. He carved his images onto wood blocks, then pressed ink onto paper. That’s how engravings get made. Experts say his hand often guided the knife. Look up Eric Gill next.
