An awesome example of relief printing here, the artist as managed to capture the power and presence of Martin Luther King in his print.  I think it is the colour that manages to do this, it makes him look like an idol and people look up to him, which is the truth.  I love the shading on his head, quite a unique way of showing shadow yet it works and brings the piece to life.
