About this work

This sketch shows a woman sitting on a chair inside a circular room. Above her, a man is climbing down a rope. The walls are dark, and the light comes from a small window on the right. The lines are simple but precise, with a lot of shading. The woman holds a small object in her hands, but it’s hard to tell what it is. The room looks like it might be a stage or a set, with the rope and chair arranged in a way that feels deliberate. This print was made using a technique called drypoint.
