Additional Information

This image is one of four from Edwina Sandys’ series of lithographic prints, Make Up. Each of the four prints show a different blue-outlined woman in the act of putting on her make up, exploring this cosmetic ritual. The woman in this print puts red lipstick on a sharp-toothed mouth, adding a note of ferocity to the feminine image.
