Visionary landscape of twisting trees, rocks and a blue river strewn with skulls and bones, with white birds swooping over the water, a skeleton reaching from the riverbank at left and a school of fish in the foreground, beneath a banded sky of rust, green and gold. Painted in acrylic and marker on a canted corner sheet of corrugated paperboard within a wavy painted border, signed in marker by Rudolph V. Bostic at lower left, float mounted in a black frame. Center fold line to the paperboard, edge wear and small losses at the canted corners as is typical of the artist, not examined out of the frame.
