Carrière’s print comes from “L’Estampe Originale,” a periodical that united the most influential printmakers of late-twentieth-century Paris. It also helped to foster technological developments in the art of printmaking.

The figure is a fleeting mystery as she dissipates into the background. Is the head materializing before your eyes or dematerializing into the mist?
