About this work

This drawing shows a woman wearing a loose shirt and a tight corset. She holds a large flower with long leaves behind her head. The lines are simple but strong, with dark ink against a light background. The flower looks almost like a hat, covering her hair. The artist used a printmaking method to create this piece. Try looking up lithography to see how this was made.
