notes: label: Description (Brief)
content: The technology of Gasparro's time allowed him to work on multiple copies of the same image without having to redraw the image every time. Here Gasparro not only added marks with pencil on the Phrygian cap (Liberty cap) but also removed marks by painting over them in white-out fluid. The process was limitless, and the drawing was complete only after it matched his vision.
