Full of vigour, the dominant rotund form relates to the sparseness of the canvas about it through the idiom of abstraction dealing with space and form. Bold in composition, Prosperity advances conventional appreciation of both the traditional and the new.” (Crossroads: The Making of New Identities, Page 27).
