On the Stone 8 by Francoise Gilot

Color lithograph 8 portrays a young female figure above a male figure in blue surrounded by an ovoid organic shaped background with interlacing ribbons and colored rings. With one hand on her hip, the image is a powerful metaphor of the independence of women to stand firm and confident in the presence of persuasive man. Not lost on Francoise having endured a lifetime of domineering men.
