This striking monochromatic linocut presents a detailed and emotionally charged portrait, capturing a moment of profound expression. The stark contrast achieved through the linocut technique accentuates the depth of emotion, with the subject's features meticulously carved to portray a narrative of resilience and intensity.

Linocut printing, a variant of woodcut, came into prominence in the early 20th century as an accessible method of printmaking. It's known for its bold contrasts and ability to convey strong emotional and social statements, often associated with movements such as Expressionism. This particular piece reflects the era's penchant for raw, unfiltered expression in art, making it a valuable find for collectors of historical prints and enthusiasts of the period's aesthetic.
