  2. Silhouettes are such the rage right now, but from your collection you can tell this is a technique that's been used through out many different eras and that hasn't gone out of style. I love the Edward Gorey, Arthur Rackam and the unknown artist of the monkeys eating. Bravo! Hope you're doing well.
