Work Description: 
This painting depicts an odd presence composed of white bone-like forms rising out of the brown earth. Several stylized green blades of grass are seen at the bottom left, above which a brown trellis-like object stands between a fiery yellow-red glow and the white figure. A possible fence post stands at the right. The entire scene is set beneath a deep cobalt blue sky.
