Work Description:
|
Two figures (a male and female) are illustrated in this painting, though only their heads and one hand is shown. Both figures' heads are elongated and reduced to golden, totem-like shapes. The male figure's oversized, proper right hand is shown in the bottom left corner of the painting. The female is shown with long, stringy hair. Farm equipment and machinery are alluded to in the dark maroon background.
