Part of the Tristan and Iseult legend: Tristan sends a message in the form of a leaf. "One of the works showing incidents from the Tristan and Iseult story. Celtic myth." P.B.B. 1987. This work is also on hessian, and shows a mix of style - the use of planes in the figures, but also this is printed, giving a ghostly air to those who are at the beginning of their betrayal.
