This stylish 20th-century etching by Swedish artist Lars Hoffsten (b. 1956) depicts ladders within an industrial interior. There’s a geometric quality to it, which is in part due to its linear forms - the striking verticals of the ladders and the horizontal of the railings.

Signed in pencil, dated, framed and glazed.
