It does not work with a figurative motif or a specific story - its essence is \u003cstrong\u003ethe depiction of a principle\u003c\/strong\u003e , not an event. The composition is \u003cstrong\u003ecentral and symmetrical\u003c\/strong\u003e , which in the history of art is a clear sign of sacred, meditative or cosmological content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The center of the painting is \u003cstrong\u003ea bright circle\u003c\/strong\u003e , around which a gently rhythmic flow of colored lines unfolds.
