Work Description:
In this relatively monochromatic painting, a figure is alluded to through snaking and broken outlines painted amidst a mottled grey-brown field of color. The figure's head, shoulder, arm, hand, and torso can be distinguished. The only saturated hue found in this composition is found in the suggestion of a golden-yellow disc near what would be the figure's proper left shoulder if he looks out towards the viewer. The disc merges and fades into both the figure itself as well as the atmosphere around him.
