Description
This is a traditional linocut made under the watchful eye of Mr Stanisław Nowicki in his studio. It is not perfect but I will not have occasion to correct it.

For those who doesn't know what linocut is (following Wikipedia.org):
Linocut is a printmaking technique, a variant of woodcut in which a sheet of linoleum (sometimes mounted on a wooden block) is used for a relief surface. A design is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife, V-shaped chisel or gouge, with the raised (uncarved) areas representing a reversal (mirror image) of the parts to show printed. The linoleum sheet is inked with a roller (called a brayer), and then impressed onto paper or fabric. The actual printing can be done by hand or with a printer (printing press).
