Topic #50--"Woman" Entry

From Peggy!:

"While I've never really taken to the figurative in my work, this old intaglio print seems to fit the bill quite nicely. The technique used is called á la poupée, meaning the colour is daubed onto the plate with small pieces of tarlatan or poupée. Looking at this print for the first time in quite a while I think I might use some of its elements in a mixed media work. "
