This small square image shows two simple, abstract shapes that look like a person’s head and shoulders. The lines are rough and uneven, almost like a sketch. The background is just a plain, light-colored paper. The artist used a printing method that leaves marks like this. It’s not clear what the shapes mean—maybe just shapes, not a real person. Look up etching to see how this kind of printmaking works.
