About this work

This painting shows a bear cub standing on its hind legs. It's a simple yet charming image. The bear cub seems to be looking straight at us, and its posture is quite natural. The artist's use of drypoint technique creates a lot of texture and depth in the image, which is interesting to look at. To learn more about similar artworks, check out the technique of chiaroscuro.
