About this work

This sketch shows three shadowy figures carrying a fourth person on a stretcher. The sky above them is dark blue with scattered white stars. The figures are dressed in loose, dark clothes, and the person being carried looks pale and still. The artist used quick, rough lines to show movement and urgency. The stretcher’s yellow tag stands out against the dark clothes, adding a small but sharp detail. Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
