About this work

This print shows a dark, shadowy face half-lit from the side. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, almost like scribbles. The colors are mostly brown and black, with a few lighter patches on the forehead and cheek. The artist used a technique where ink is rubbed onto a smooth stone instead of paint on canvas. This makes the lines look rough and the tones uneven. Check out lithography to see how this process works.
