Description: It is useful to note that the idea behind abstract art is that it enables the viewer to understand the composition in terms of area, rather than mass. Such forms, serene and majestic, create disarmingly strong sensations.

The viewer is drawn by the essential identity of the sketch into the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.

``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.''
[Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232]
