About this work

This drawing shows two overlapping faces made of tangled lines. The shapes twist into each other, with sharp angles and soft curves blending together. Light lines crisscross the whole piece, creating a web-like texture. The artist used only black ink on a light background, making the lines stand out. The faces don’t look real—they’re more like abstract shapes that hint at human features. Want to see more? Look up engraving to learn how artists create detailed prints like this one.
