About this work

This painting shows a bearded man sitting on a rock, holding a bunch of grapes. Behind him is a wooden cross with symbols on it. Bright clusters of grapes and leaves fill the background, and the sky is a deep blue with stars. The man’s face looks calm, but his body is drawn with simple, bold lines. The colors are flat and bright, like a folk-style illustration. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build shading with lines.
