View of the artist's studio. The re-painting of an earlier work of the patio below quietly inserts itself as a view from the studio (hinting at the ambiguities contained within the painting). An earlier landscape repainted over the cupboard door at center and the artist's reflection in the mirror at the right add to the ambiguity of how many iterations of an image are presented with each image . The artist renders the image as interior and landscape, with themes seen throughout the artist's later production - painted references to the artist's own work and/or that of others.
