Dreamlike Nightscape with a Joyful Hippo

More about Dreamlike Nightscape with a Joyful Hippo

A surreal painting depicts a gigantic light blue, corpulent hippopotamus lying on its stomach, facing right and smiling in the foreground. A pale-skinned woman with dark hair dressed in a coral top lies on her abdomen with her head turned to the left, resting on the hippo's back. Three people in a small boat are visible below the hippo, and a large crowd of people with tiny heads gather at its base in the dark blue, flat foreground. The nighttime background features a city with lit-up buildings and a visible half-moon and stars in the dark blue sky.
