minus-squaretal@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 hours agoIt really drives me nuts that I don’t know a name for that particular type of “unperturbed woodcut face in the sun” style. The “face in sun” thing is used in heraldry, so “sun in splendour” maybe kind of at least kind of encompasses it, but that doesn’t entail the woodcut appearance. Maybe there is no term, but it seems so distinctive and such a common element in art that I’d think that someone would have named it.
