Woman Going for Water

Description

Author: Nurekeyev, Rashid. 1964
A decorative composition featuring a stylized treatment of form. On the left stands a female figure draped in a long blue garment, accompanied by an animal constructed from interlocking geometric planes. Large leaves and branches fill the upper register, while the lower section reveals three rectangular panels depicting green lizards. Forms are reduced to flat planes bounded by crisp contours, within a space devoid of physical depth; the overall rhythm relies on the juxtaposition of geometric and botanical motifs. The palette balances muted grey-blues and olive tones with warm accents of ochre-yellow.
