Overlapping arcs of warm sandstone and pale ochre accumulate across the upper right of the picture plane, resolving into half-legible human forms that press against one another without quite separating. Fischer works at a scale that rewards patience - the layers of translucent line reveal themselves gradually, each passage describing a shoulder, a curved back, a reaching arm. The restrained tonal range holds everything in a kind of suspended closeness.
