Triptych “Father’s Journey”. Left Panel

Description

Author: Amanzholov, Magauya. 1949-1995
A multi-figure composition with symbolic content. The space is constructed in tiers and divided into conventional planes. In the foreground are male figures: one of them holds a lantern, while another stands beside a mechanism. In the upper part, galloping horses are depicted against a stylized cloudy background. In the middle section is the figure of a woman in a headscarf, shown in profile with her head turned to the side. The restrained palette is based on a combination of cool grey-blue and smoky tones with muted brown-ochre and greenish hues.
