Contour Lines

Contour lines show the outline of the subject, and not the volume or mass of an object. I decided to use a drawing done by artist Henri Gaudier Brzeska. The piece is called "Horse and Cart with two riders" which was created in 1912. The picture is an outline of a heavy woman that appears to be wealthy, the woman is accompanied by a man that seems to be a servant and catering to her needs. I choose this picture because the people and horse do not have much detail the drawing appears to be an outline.
