The work exemplifies her commitment to the abstract genre, employing delicate layers of tempera and possibly oil on paper. The title suggests a thematic structure of support or resilience, resonating with af Klint’s interest in spiritual and symbolic representation through non-figurative forms. Her technique harmonizes geometric and organic shapes, reflecting a unique visual language that contributed significantly to early 20th-century abstract movements.
