About this work

This black-and-white woodcut shows three figures standing close together. The person on the left wears a long robe and has their arm around the middle figure, who is a small child. The figure on the right is barefoot, with long hair and a flowing dress, and they’re reaching up with one hand. The artist used sharp lines to create simple, strong shapes—no soft edges here. The figures look tense, almost like they’re in motion or reacting to something outside the frame. If you like this style, check out more woodcut prints to see how artists use this technique.
