What are Remarques?

Description of this Artwork

Inspired by the most notable of the Minoan pottery styles, the Marine Style, Bogdanoff has incorporated colors similar to that reflected in his Flying Fish fresco. Here we see accentuation on the protuberant head, suction cups of the waving tentacles and the large gazing eyes of the octopus, while assorted sea plants float amid the creature. The octopus, a favorite topic of design painted by Minoan artists, mostly adorned stirrup jars.
