This print is all sharp blues and blacks. Big circles float in a row near the top, like moons against a dark sky. Below, tiny shapes—buildings?—cluster along a jagged line, as if hugging the edge of the water. The artist used a mix of smooth and textured marks, almost like scratching into the surface. The circles feel heavy and solid, while the buildings look light and scattered. Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
