This sketch shows two figures in a dim, green-tinted room. One stands near a window with hands clasped, wearing a long, flowing robe. The other leans against a table, adjusting a heavy curtain that frames a crown-shaped design. The walls are plain, with a small framed picture hanging crookedly. The crown on the curtain looks like a religious symbol, maybe a halo or a royal emblem. The figures’ robes and the quiet, shadowy light give it a solemn feel. Next, check out how this was made with lithography.
