This drawing shows a simple, pale face with big, round eyes and a small nose. The lines under the skin are drawn in carefully, like bones and muscles. The mouth is closed, and there’s a faint red mark near the bottom, maybe for lips or a wound. The artist used thin ink lines to show what’s underneath the skin. It looks like a mix of drawing and printing, with some parts cut out and glued on. Try looking up woodcut to see how this technique works.
