About this work

This print shows two women standing close together. One wears a dark dress with a necklace, her hair pulled back. The other has a lighter, almost ghostly face with a pink stripe down her side. A bird with a long tail is perched on the second woman’s shoulder, its feathers bright orange and black. The artist mixed bold colors with stark black outlines, giving it a graphic, almost cartoonish look. The women’s faces are simple but expressive, with big eyes and smooth shapes.
