Endpaper with Animals

About this work

This green paper is packed with black animal pictures. There are rows of animals—tigers, horses, cows, goats, and more—all drawn in a simple, bold style. Some stand, some walk, and a few sit under trees. The background is plain, so the animals pop out clearly. The animals look like they’re from a storybook. Each one is easy to spot, even in small boxes. The artist used sharp lines to make them stand out against the green. Want to see more like this? Check out woodcut prints next.
