This image shows a black-and-white woodcut with tangled, swirling lines filling the whole page. The lines overlap in chaotic clusters, leaving small open spaces between them. The edges are framed by a thick black border, and the paper has a textured, slightly rough look. The artist carved these lines into wood, then inked and printed them—each mark is sharp and precise. The dense patterns make it hard to follow any single line from start to finish. Try looking up woodcut to see how artists carve and print images this way.
