Letter X

Hans Lützelburger after Hans Holbein the Younger

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of figures seated around a table with a crossed element overlaying them. The image depicts various figures gathered at a table. The figures are rendered in a black and white style, resembling medieval woodcuts. The scene is encapsulated in a square border, and the cross adds an element to the scene. The expressions and postures of the figures convey a sense of drama or tension.
