This drawing is all sharp lines and odd shapes. A big circle sits on top of a lumpy, textured form that looks like a body. Staircases and flat planes stick out at strange angles. The whole thing is black and white, with a few dotted spots for texture. The artist used a method that lets them print many copies at once. That’s how this became part of a set of 31 drawings. Try looking up lithography to see how it works.
