Symbolism

Symbol of the raised and triumphant member. Passion and sensuality.

Structural Meaning

The partially destroyed roof shows a high degree of excitement and instability.

Visual Description

A tall stone tower with arched windows and a tiled roof rises behind a leafy tree. In the foreground two young figures sit barefoot on the grass, leaning close together—one with long blond hair and a rust-colored garment, the other with darker hair and a gray tunic. Tree branches and foliage frame the upper edge of the scene, and the tower shows small openings and a visible doorway. The watercolor palette is soft and the composition feels intimate despite the looming tower in the background.
