This print shows a rooftop scene with two large, dark statues sitting side by side. Behind them, a simple wall with a railing runs along the edge, and a tall pole holds a black cloth. In the distance, mountains fade into a pale blue sky, while buildings with pointed, golden tops peek over the rooftop. The statues look like they’re guarding something, with their backs turned to the viewer. The artist used flat colors and bold outlines, making the scene feel calm and still. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print in person.
