About this work

This print looks like a dream mixed with a joke. On the left, a horse and dog run toward two odd pyramids with eyes on top. A winged statue stands nearby. To the right, a lion with a top hat sits on a box full of gears and coins. The background is a messy, dark sky with a hint of a city. The artist signed it in the corner. The lines are drawn by hand, but the whole thing feels like a puzzle. Next, check out lithography to see how prints like this are made.
