About this work

This drawing shows a person wrapped in a long, flowing robe. Their head is covered with a hood, and they’re standing sideways, facing left. The lines are soft and sketchy, almost like a quick sketch. The artist used a technique where ink is pressed onto stone to make prints. This method keeps the marks looking hand-drawn and loose. Next, check out lithography to see how it works.
