Mother sun shows a sculpture on the lake. In the center of the painting is a sculpture of a woman, which is irradiated by a huge sun and its field of rays. The composition of the picture is almost completely mirror symmetrical. The large, clear, hard-edged forms of the sun stand for a reduction to the essential while at the same time renouncing everything random and changeable in the composition. This contrasts with the small stylized woman on her pedestal.
