An abstract composition dominated by naphthol red rectangles in the lower third and cobalt teal in the upper third. A jumble of blocks reaching into the sky towards a red sun occupies the left side. The ruined edifice of the ziggurat is anchored into the ground with expressive linear marks, and the Euphrates river is represented on the right.
For the #BlueSkyArtShow, #layers of #strata and #history inspired this #AbstractLandscape painting of the #Etemenanki #Ziggurat (now in ruins) in #AncientBabylon by the #Euphrates river.
