Description

This is a strange painting entitled "Nude Descending a Railcar." Very abstracxt and geometric, it is of a nude figure, breasts exposed, genitals covered by a leaf, that seems to be climbing down a small ladder, assumingly in a railcar. The figure's head is a large triangle, with one very large eye. No mouth. No nose. The eye is blue.
