Subject
Village scape with woman and child
Description
A heavily garmented woman stands at the foreground of this composition holding the form of an infant. She is frontally posed gazing outwards from the picture plane. A series of condensed architectural structures rise behind her with a centralized blue dome standing out amongst the rest. The forms in the composition, though not totally abstracted, are reduced through the use of a painterly rendering where brushstrokes are clearly visible and detail is obscured.
