Description
Abstract engraving made up of two rectangular sections, of different heights but the same length, separated from each other by a white line. The lower rectangle rests at the level of the base of the print.
Occupying the upper half of the print, a spherical shape of a warm, reddish hue, shaded in brown, stands out. The rest of the work is predominantly grey. Below the ‘warm’ sphere is a composition that resembles a fireplace screen. A kind of fleur-de-lis is depicted in light grey in the middle of the base of the rectangle, with inwardly curving side stalks. It is framed within a frame decorated with rustic elements and, at the top, with acanthus leaves placed in the shape of an open book. In the background is a lattice with a tight weave.
Two vertical columns can be seen to the side. On the right, the column resembles a feline's head fronted and cut vertically.
Between the fireplace screen and the convex black line that accompanies the reddish sphere is a grey area outlined in black, which tapers towards the centre of the engraving in the shape of a fish tail.
