I love this, contemporary narrative painting at its best. The tallness of the gates leads us up to the iconic sculptures at the top of the picture, and we travel up there as she taps her foot, impatient. Do you know ‘The Innocent Eye-test’? I use it in an essay on my own blog – https://anthonyhowelljournal.com/2012/09/28/the-picture-within-the-picture/
