This is a painting of a green, abstract sculpture resembling a spiraling staircase. The artwork features a series of stone steps ascending in a twisting fashion, giving the impression of an incomplete spiral staircase. Each step is painted in various shades of green, with darker green and brown markings scattered across the surface, adding texture and depth. The steps appear to be carved or constructed out of a rough material, suggesting a rustic, naturalistic quality. The clean background highlights the striking form and color of the steps.
