Description
A sleep within a cluster of fruit, over which a winged, flaming shadow hovers — the fragility of life on a silver platter. On a metal plate rests a bunch of dark blue-purple grapes, and among them sleeps a small figure in a red robe. Above spreads a black, curved shape like a wing with fiery orange-yellow bands. From the platter fall thin curling tendrils against a misty grey sky.
