About this work

This drawing shows two tall, curved shapes with dangling lines. The lines crisscross everywhere, making a messy, tangled web. At the top, there’s a rough rectangle with two small shapes that look like boxes or lights. The paper is light brown and has some smudges. The artist used lots of thin, repeated lines to build up dark areas—this is called cross-hatching. It’s like stacking shadows to make things look solid. Next, check out how engraving works to create this kind of texture.
