About this work

This black-and-white print shows a strong figure standing in shallow water, holding a spear. Around them, smaller shapes with wings float above, while tangled vines and fish swirl below. The lines are sharp and textured, like carved wood. The artist used a tool called a linoleum cut to make this image. That means they carved away parts of a linoleum block, then rolled ink over the raised areas to print it. Look up Margaret Burroughs to see more of her bold, graphic art.
