A large silhouette resembling a person wearing a coat is on the left, overlaid with green. Another person stands confidently on the right in a dark outfit.

Provoslav Sovák

1969

The image depicts a complex arrangement of geometric shapes and lines forming an intricate abstract composition. Grids, curves, and arcs intersect at various points across the artwork. Some elements resemble architectural structures, while others recall drafting tools with graphs and annotations. Circular shapes and triangular patches with color contrast with the monochrome print. A striped pattern on the left side suggests columns, and a dark feather-like shape sweeps across the top. The piece's abstract nature evokes blueprints or schematics, combining technicality with creative interpretation.
