this painting features a dynamic and abstract representation of figures and animals, utilizing a vibrant color palette and fluid forms to create a sense of movement and energy. The background is a dark, muted blue, which contrasts sharply with the bright and varied colors of the figures in the foreground.
in the center and right of the composition, there are several human-like figures rendered in different hues, including white, yellow, green, and red. These figures are depicted with elongated limbs and exaggerated postures, giving them a sense of fluidity and motion. The use of overlapping lines and shapes suggests interaction or conflict among the figures, adding to the overall dynamism of the scene.
to the left, there are more abstract forms that resemble animals, with one prominent figure in shades of red and another in blue. These animal forms are bent over, as if grazing or engaging in some activity on the ground. Their shapes are less defined, blending into the background and further enhancing the abstract nature of the painting.
