#10697 Salvador Soria

The composition presents three figures arranged in a triangular formation around a central table. The background is rendered with a textured, ochre-toned surface that appears almost woven, creating a sense of enclosure and emphasizing the flatness of the pictorial space.
On the left, a figure seated on a chair wears a long, flowing garment of deep red. Their posture suggests weariness or contemplation; the head rests against the chair’s backrest, and the gaze is directed away from the central action. The second figure, positioned centrally, is seated at the table. This individuals body is rendered in muted yellows and blues, with a more angular depiction of the limbs. Their hands are placed on the tabletop, seemingly engaged in an activity that remains obscured by the composition’s framing.
To the right, another figure sits, clad in dark brown or black clothing. A wide-brimmed hat partially obscures their face, lending them an air of anonymity or perhaps a deliberate distancing from direct engagement. The legs are crossed at the ankles, and the feet are bare, adding to the sense of informality within the scene.
The artist’s use of elongated forms and simplified features contributes to a feeling of stylized representation rather than naturalistic depiction. The figures appear somewhat detached, their expressions unreadable, which fosters an atmosphere of quiet introspection or restrained narrative.
Subtly, the arrangement suggests a gathering, perhaps a game or shared activity, but the lack of overt interaction between the individuals hints at underlying tensions or emotional distance. The textured background and flattened perspective contribute to a sense of timelessness, suggesting that this scene could be taking place in any era or location. The color palette, dominated by earth tones punctuated by occasional blues and reds, reinforces the feeling of solemnity and introspection.
