Diana and Endymion

About this work

This print shows a woman and a man in a rocky landscape. The woman stands tall, holding a spear, while the man lies on the ground, looking up at her. Around them, small figures float in the sky, some holding branches or instruments. The background is mostly blue and gray tones, with swirling lines that make the scene feel dramatic. The artist used three woodblocks to layer colors—black lines, gray-blue, and light blue—to create depth. The title at the bottom reads *Diana and Endymion*, hinting at a story from mythology.
