Cora Boone approached this composition like it may have been a design for a future white-line woodcut, separating the areas of color with heavy black lines, like a stained glass window. Had this been done on a block the black lines would have been cut away, leaving the uncut areas separated from each other, ready to be colored using a brush.
The vase of magnolias pushes the limits of the composition, extending to or beyond the edges, adding to the simple drama of the work.
