F. Meyneke's "Madonna" is a striking woodcut print from before 1957. The artwork features a close-up portrait of a nun, her face framed by a simple black and white veil. The artist uses bold lines and stark contrasts to create a powerful image that emphasizes the nun's spiritual presence. The stylized forms and flat planes of the composition are characteristic of woodcut printing, and the piece showcases the expressive potential of this traditional technique.
