About this work

This print shows a woman in a flowing, patterned robe, holding a fan and a basket of fruit. Behind her, a tree with pink flowers curves around her, and a large family crest sits at the top. The background has small birds and a wavy line that looks like water. The bold black outlines and layered shading give the image a strong, almost three-dimensional feel. The woman’s pose and the crest suggest she might be a performer or someone of status. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching to see how artists create depth with lines.
