About this work

This print shows two fake U.S. dollar bills side by side. The top one has a greenish tint and a portrait of a man with a cloud above his head, plus tiny scenes in the corners. The bottom one is also green and features a row of ships with soldiers on them, like a battle scene. The bills look old and worn, with text that’s slightly faded. The artist made them seem like they’re from a different time, but they’re actually modern art. If you like this, check out lithography to see how prints like this are made.
