Description

A young figure with short dark hair stands behind a wooden railing on a coastal hillside, wearing a voluminous orange grass-fiber skirt banded in green and yellow at the waist, with red beaded necklaces and a bracelet on bare shoulders and torso. Behind the figure rise banana-palm fronds with a large pendant magenta-and-orange flower and a slender gray trunk, set against a pale blue sky with soft clouds and a distant coastline and blue water below. Paul Jacoulet, "Sous les Bananiers, Tomil: Yap" (Miles 92), 1948, woodcut printed in colours.
