The composition centers on a stylized mother and child riding an ox, their figures outlined with striking clarity against a vivid lime-green landscape. Their traditional garments, rendered in bright reds, turquoise, and rich patterns, evoke a sense of cultural storytelling, while their simplified forms lend the piece a dreamlike, almost mythical quality. In the distance, abstracted homes and grazing animals (camels) float across the canvas, contributing to a sense of movement and layered memory. The brushwork is lively and textured, and the palette bursts with saturated greens, reds, and ochres, suggesting both innocence and vibrancy. The gold-toned frame, with its slightly distressed, classic profile, adds a refined contrast to the painting’s playful and narrative-driven style. Signed in the bottom left by the artist, this piece stands out as both expressive and symbolically rich.
