About this work

This painting shows two blurred figures lying down, one on its side with a round, dark shape near its head. The background is mostly pale yellow, and the bottom right corner has a greenish, cloudy patch. The lines are loose, almost sketchy, with no sharp details. The dark shape near the head might be a hat or a shadow. The figures look like they’re resting or maybe even sleeping, with no clear faces or bodies. If you like this loose, dreamy style, check out *sfumato*.
