Procession at Dusk

Status: in private collection Size: 30 cm x 20 cm Technique: mixed media Description: In Procession at Dusk, a surreal cavalcade unfolds at the edge of a luminous cityscape. A winged figure on horseback leads the way, flanked by an unlikely gathering: dancers, skeletons, birds, soldiers, jesters, and beasts—each part myth, part allegory. The golden ground and blood-red rooftops glow with intensity, as if the sun has just dipped beneath the horizon, casting its final verdict on the day. The scene balances the sacred and the absurd, evoking both apocalypse and carnival. With echoes of medieval processions, icon painting, and contemporary satire, the work becomes a visual parable about judgment, performance, and the strange parade of human (and inhuman) existence.
