About this work

This print shows a woman sitting on a clock. She’s facing away, her body turned to the side, with one arm resting on her knee. The clock below her has a round face with Roman numerals and a heavy base. The artist used lines to create shadows and texture, giving the scene a rough, grainy look. The background is mostly empty, making the woman and clock stand out. Try looking up etching to see how this technique works.
