About this work

This image depicts a man in a green suit and red tie, suspended upside down in front of a building. He is grasping a window frame with one hand and holding a white object in the other. The background features a dark sky with a full moon and stars. The man's attire and the building's architecture suggest a sense of formality and structure, which contrasts with his inverted position. This juxtaposition creates a sense of tension and unease. To learn more about the artist's use of woodcut techniques, explore the works of Richard Bosman.
