In addition to working in oils, Peruvian artist José Sabogal made numerous woodblock prints. India Huanca represents an indigenous woman from the Junín Region of central Peru, known as Huanca. The format of the woodcut is inherently rough, allowing the grain of the wood to show through and create the illusion of texture on the printed page.
