On the painting

In the middle of the lower half stands a dark green chest, its edges combed in lines, its lid closed; while everything around it is crooked, it is the one geometric unit. Three bodies are ranged around it.

Description of the image

Against a black ground scored with fine vertical lines, three figures occupy the frame. At left a kneeling figure with a blue and green face, yellow patches around the eyes and an open red mouth rests one knee on a green oval. In the centre a taller standing figure leans a forearm on a thin vertical pole; its head is a plain white oval with grey hair, and its body is streaked with grey, red and blue. At right, a third figure stands with its back turned, its buttocks painted as concentric blue and red rings. A dark green box with yellow-green edges sits at lower centre.
