Balthus Turned to Stone

Crescenzio Onofri

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a landscape with mountains, a town, swirling clouds in the sky, a seated figure near a stream pointing towards a flying figure with wings and a caduceus, and a bull looking to the right. Lush trees and rocky formations frame the scene. The illustration uses fine line work resembling engravings with a monochrome color palette.
