This print is mostly blue and white. You see wavy lines that look like water or fabric. On the left, there’s a simple shape that could be a vase or a lamp. The top has zigzag patterns and what looks like a cloud or smoke. The artist used a blueprint method, which is rare for art. That means the lines are likely made from ink on paper, not paint. Look up John Banting next to see how he used this technique in other works.
