This print is packed with swirling bodies tumbling through a chaotic sky. No faces are clear—just arms, wings, and tangled limbs in a dark, stormy mess. The top half is lighter, like smoke or a storm cloud, while the bottom half is thick with shadowy figures. The title at the bottom says it’s about "The Fall of the Rebellious Angels," but the print itself feels more like a frenzied sketch than a calm story. The lines are rough and busy, almost like the artist was trying to capture movement in ink. If you like this wild style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
