Engraving knife Scagel (Executions of May 3, 1808)

#1

Post by Montejano »

I have finished this special project.
It is an etching realized in a knife Scagel.
The design inspired by the work of Goya ()

Realized to 7 levels, it has been a complex and difficult work, but I am satisfied of the result.

Very nice detail and depth rendering from the several layers of etch. I like this very much. Well done!
