This painting was inspired by the early Renaissance style of "portraits in landscape". The artist used elements and composition of Piero Dela Francesca's "Portraits of the Duke and Duchess of Urbino". This is a reinterpretation of the strange relationship between the figures and the landscape. These figures look as still as the landscape behind them.
In the current painting there is a unity of the figure and the landscape. The white elephant traveling inside the skirt adds an unexpected element.
This painting is also an exploration of a female body, of the costumes we wear, and of unit/separation of our bodies in a landscape
