Coarse knife marks cut into the block: figures and animals enclosed by wedge-shaped gouges, black pressed to a solid mass, whites left as breaks in the grain, the ground filled with textile pattern and rhythmic strokes, printed on cream paper with ink smudges, a second colour slightly out of register. Avoid fine crosshatch and grey tones.
