This is a black and white relief print portraying a workshop scene. The central focus is on a table with several cylindrical objects on it. In the background, there is a window with four panes bringing light into the scene. The print uses sharp, jagged lines, giving the composition an energetic and chaotic feel. This style is reminiscent of Lill Tschudi, known for linocuts depicting work and industrial settings.
