About this work

This picture shows two figures tangled together. Their arms and legs twist in sharp angles, like broken lines. The background is a flat black, while the figures are white and gray, with some thin black lines inside them. The artist used a printing method called linoleum cut—ink pressed into carved wood. This style makes the shapes look bold and simple. Check out Henri Gaudier-Brzeska for more work like this.
