About this work
A young man with elongated features and cropped brown hair, in a pale-green suit and pink shirt, tilts his head back to play a small brass trumpet. Behind him, low brick factory buildings with tall chimneys release smoke into a pastel sky. At his feet, a black cabinet holds a snail-shell bowl from which a pale mask floats on a string beside a small seated stone-colored figurine.
The cool green suit sits against a warm rose-and-lilac sky, the smoke rendered in soft blended strokes that soften the industrial skyline. Porcelain-smooth faces contrast with looser, textured passages in sky and ground. The muted, slightly acid palette and surreal props evoke a quiet, subdued melancholy fitting the title's mood.
