DescriptionAcrylic on canvas, 1969. Has all the characteristic saturation of colour associated with Eileen Agar’s work. There’s delight in the making of shapes and visual metaphors here. She uses a dove central picture, the bringer of messages, the symbol of peace and of love. The dove flies over verdant fields and is surrounded by the deepest of green-blue skies. This is metaphorical, but also playfully attractive.
