About this work

The drawing shows a collection of scenes from Christian stories. These scenes are detailed and small, suggesting they were meant for personal devotion. The drawing is intricate, with many lines and details, which is achieved through a technique like cross-hatching. The Museum of Ethnography has this drawing, and it's interesting to see how it's preserved. The artist used a lot of detail in the drawing, but we don't know much about them. You can learn more about this type of art at the museum: Museum of Ethnography.
