This print shows a face with a tall, striped headdress. The face is simple—just lines for eyes and a mouth. Behind it, there are two figures with long arms, holding up what looks like a throne or chair. The whole thing is cut out from black and white linoleum, giving it a sharp, graphic look. The artist used bold black shapes against a white background to make the image stand out. The lines are clean and strong, almost like a woodcut or a sketch. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro* next.
