From "Bizzarie di varie Figure"

Giovanni Battista Bracelli

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a composition of geometric shapes forming two abstract figures. Triangles, diamonds, and rectangles make up the figures. The figure on the left has a hat with a feather and a hand on the hip. The figure on the right has long pointed lines extending from its head and appears to raise its arm. The figures evoke a sense of character and interaction, reminiscent of a theatrical performance.
