Hilda #2
c. 1930

A black and white etching of a woman seated in an ornate chair, holding an open book in her lap. She has a contemplative expression, with her hair styled in waves and adorned with a bow. The background features a draped curtain and a framed picture on the wall. The print has a signature in the bottom right corner and is numbered on the bottom left, indicating it's part of a limited series. The paper on which the etching is printed shows signs of age with slightly frayed edges.
