Earth
Description
Composition in earthy, black, ochre, red and blue tones. Smooth texture. Composition with an irregular area light colored, occupying almost the entire area of the composition against dark background. The light colored area is all filled with small brushstrokes in earthy tones, and a dark color mass can be seen in the center. Two parallel lines crossing the composition on the left, slightly diagonally from right left, top to bottom. On the right, another straight line crosses the composition vertically. A sinuous line cuts through the width of the support from the upper left corner to the lower right center. The composition suggests an aerial photography.
