About this work

This image shows a woman’s face framed by a dark, textured border. She’s wearing a lace collar and a simple head covering. The lighting is soft, mostly highlighting her face while the background stays shadowy. The artist used a scratchy, layered technique to create the texture. It looks like the paper itself has been worked on to build up those dark tones. Try looking up etching to see how artists like this make prints.
