About this work

This image shows a man in a wide-brimmed hat leading a horse. The background is bright blue, with bold red and yellow shapes that look like fabric. Above the man’s head, the word "Angel" is written in orange. The whole scene has a collage feel, with different patterns stitched together. The man’s outfit and the horse’s saddle are made from colorful, patterned fabric. The artist used woodcut prints and layered them with fabric to create this mixed look. Check out more about woodcut to see how this technique works.
