Fallen Knight

"Fallen Knight" explores the enduring symbolism of the contrast between black and white, a dichotomy with roots in the Ancient Near East and exemplified in the Pythagorean Table of Opposites. In Western culture and Confucianism, this contrast often signifies the moral dichotomy of good and evil. The painting’s stark imagery prompts viewers to sketch and study the figures as they evoke themes of morality, struggle, and loss. With a touch of Realism, the work invites reflection on the human condition and the perpetual conflict between opposing forces.
