Limbo

A dark, monochrome etching in grey-black tones depicting a street scene at night: a parked van or truck at left, and at right a makeshift tented stall with draped fabric awnings and hanging strips of cloth. In the foreground, a couple sits huddled together on the ground, while three other figures stand or kneel around a tall metal brazier filled with burning paper, one man holding up a long stick or torch. The composition is dense and shadowed, giving the scene a hushed, nocturnal atmosphere; the print is signed and dated "2021" at lower right and inscribed "AP Limbo" at lower left, consistent with the etching and aquatint medium.
