Himba Woman Pencil Print

I have done a study of this incredibly beautiful woman in pencil, I chose a paper with grain to bring out the textures of the tribal head gear and ochre.

Tall and slender, the proud yet friendly Himba are noted for their unusual sculptural beauty, enhanced by intricate hairstyles and decorations. Their skins rubbed with red ochre, they seem to be forgotten by the rest of the world, but this is only as a result of their extreme isolation and conservative way of life.

The best Giclee printing technology currently available. Printed on museum grade Hahnemüle Photo Rag fine art paper. A beautiful smooth surface, a Natural white, with 100% rag content. It has excellent archival qualities.
