Like the solar eclipses, the circular shapes depicted in this work, create a contrast with the warm background. The contrast between the two primary colors is very strong. Lo Fermo's work is a reinterpretation and an elaboration of an American art movement born after World War II: Abstract Expressionism. This painting is deeply connected to the artists of Abstract Expressionism, such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Barnett Newmann. Their creations are characterized by basic compositions with simplified shapes, sometimes with large areas of colors to produce a meditational response in the viewer.
