This print shows a simple, dark brown horse standing on a bright yellow background. The lines are rough and uneven, like they were drawn quickly. The horse’s legs are stretched out, and its head is turned slightly to the side. The artist used a printing method that lets ink spread in loose strokes. This makes the image look handmade and a little rough around the edges. Next, check out how lithography works to see how prints like this are made.
