The Walk

1963–1964

A painting depicting three figures walking on a textured surface with their shadows elongated behind them. The central figure is closest to the viewer, with another figure further back and a group of figures in the distance. The surface appears to be divided into panels, with abstract marks and splashes of color, suggesting an urban setting. The overall tone of the painting is warm with a focus on the play of light and shadow.
