This sketch shows two figures standing close together. One wears a long coat with big buttons, the other a loose dress. Their faces are simple shapes, almost like masks. The lines are rough and uneven, as if drawn quickly. The artist used a printing method called lithography, where ink sticks to a flat stone or plate. The marks look handmade, with smudges and uneven edges. Check out how the artist used lithography to create this piece.
