About this work

This drawing shows two strange, blob-like figures standing in a dreamy landscape. The shapes are smooth and rounded, with one figure leaning against a tall, skinny rock. The ground looks wet, and everything is drawn in simple, clean lines. The artist made this in 1934, using just ink on paper. The scene feels like something from a surreal world, not quite real. Check out Yves Tanguy for more of his odd, dreamlike art.
