This striking artwork features a figure with distinctive curly hair making a hushing gesture against a complex, layered background. The composition combines warm orange tones with cool turquoise blues in horizontal bands that suggest an architectural space with classical columns and reflective water. A large, pale circular form, possibly representing the moon or sun, dominates the upper portion of the image. The figure wears flowing, loosely painted garments with yellow and gray tones. The overall effect creates a dreamlike, mysterious atmosphere that aligns with the title's suggestion of silence or secrecy. The horizontal striping effect fragments the background, adding a modern, geometric element to the classical architectural references.
