Départ pour le sabbat (Departure for the Sabbath)

About this work

This small print shows a woman with her back to us, carrying a bundle on her head. She walks through a dim doorway, her dark dress blending into the shadows. The floor outside is lit faintly, with a few scattered stones visible. The artist used a mix of dark lines and soft shading to create depth. Notice how the light spills unevenly, making the doorway feel like a threshold between two worlds. Next, look up etching to see how artists like this one use acid to carve into metal plates.
