A complex and colorful collage painting featuring various architectural and figurative elements. On the left, a classical building with columns and a flying angel above. In the center, a large red square with a smaller square cutout revealing a man's face. To the right, an ornate religious icon with a Madonna and child, and below it, a cityscape with modern buildings. The artwork combines different textures, styles, and historical references.
