Albrecht Durer Wood Engraving

Madonna Crowned By An Angel
what is unique about this artwork the overall design of this is amazing the details on this a through the roof the way they have an overall idea that was most likely running through the artists head. How it makes it so unique is just the hole print, the angel, sun, baby, everything is so detailed. I think the concept of this artwork is religion or just to show an angel in a different way.

Kathe Kollwitz Woodcut

Sleeping Woman with Child


This piece of artwork has a unique because of the way the artists created it. when I first glanced at this I didn't understand what was so special about this then I look again and saw a women holding her child. I believe the concept of this artwork was this possibly this could be a way of expressing herself in a way because maybe she wanted to draw herself while holding her baby. something interesting about this is that the drawing is showing lines of what I believe is left over white line while the artists colored it in with black paint or ink
