About this work

A grey-winged male figure kneels on rocky ground, arms raised to support a female dancer in a pale, gold-trimmed costume who arches backward above him, one arm shielding her face. Small birds wheel around them and a golden sun hangs in the hazy sky, while jagged blue mountain forms rise on either side.

Warm grey and gold tones on the two figures stand out against the cool blue of the rocks, painted in flat, simplified planes with minimal modeling. The stylized, symmetrical composition and muted, twilight-like light give the scene a solemn, mythic theatricality suited to its ballet subject.
