The Clouage Clan, II
1957

An abstract painting featuring a composition of various forms and figures that resemble humanoid shapes and objects, executed in a muted palette with textures and patterns that give the impression of a weathered wall. The figures appear to be outlined or filled with a darker tone against a lighter background, creating a sense of depth and intrigue.
