Conversation in the Wind

Michael Ayrton 1921 - 1975

Summary

A man and a woman conversing in a landscape setting. The woman is in the foreground with her back to the viewer and her hand on her left hip. The man is obscured by the woman. He faces forwards with his left hand behind his head and his right hand pointing to the left edge of the composition. Their shadows are strongly defined on the ground. Strong winds are suggested by the movement of the woman's dress and the flow of her hair to the left. In the background is a building. Only a pale grey and a dark grey are used.
