This print shows a shadowy, dreamy scene. A large, pale face fills most of the picture, its features soft and blurred. Above it, a small angel with wings plays a violin, floating in the air like a ghost. The angel’s tiny hands grip the instrument, while the face below seems lost in thought. The whole image is printed in black, with no color—just shades of gray and white. Look up lithography next to see how this print was made.
