This painting shows a crowd of people packed together, their faces pressed close. Bright colors—reds, yellows, blues—clash and mix in bold strokes. Some faces are sharp and clear, while others blur into the busy background. The scene feels crowded, almost chaotic, with overlapping shapes and lines. The artist used a woodcut technique, where the design is carved into wood and then printed. This method creates strong, graphic lines and blocks of color, which you can see here in the way the figures and background stand out. Look up woodcut to see how this printing method works.
