You see a simple scene of people having tea in this lithograph. It's an everyday moment, but what's interesting is how the artist used simple lines and shapes to create a sense of calm. The people are relaxed, and the atmosphere is quiet. Check out the work of artist: Whistler, James McNeill to see more of his simple yet detailed scenes.
