lessons of history ignored are perilous to naive political masses an image done in abstract satirically surrealistic impressionism
An allegorical painting with a contemporary social message, portraying a turbulent sky in shades of red, purple, and black with a large gold text in a gothic font that reads "lessons of history ignored are perilous to naive political masses". Crumbling parchment scrolls, historical documents with Latin writings, and marble sculptural fragments of an ancient Roman bust statue of a man and a full-body female statue wearing a toga are scattered within the vortex above a crowd of stylized, colorful, and featureless figures with large, wide-open eyes, looking upwards. The figures in the crowd are depicted in various solid colors, including orange, yellow, red, blue, green, black, and pink.
