Framing Option

The etching shows a female figure captured in a quiet, contemplative moment. Rendered in soft shades of green and blue, the image unfolds through the layered techniques of soft-ground etching, aquatint, and monotype, creating a composition of weightless stillness. The woman's gaze is turned inward, but she is watchful, her hands holding a bundle of delicate sage leaves. A plant that symbolizes cleansing, healing and wisdom. Subtle lines like the arched eyebrows and delicate hands as well as nuanced textures such as in the leaves and the hair, give the scene a poetic depth.
