The painting depicts hands and a large, almost all-encompassing shawl. Its folds, patterns and fringes create a sense of movement and depth, as if it had a life of its own. The hands in the center draw attention with their expressiveness: one of them seems to hide something behind the fabric, leaving the viewer in a mystery. It is a mystery hidden behind subtle gestures.

Bright colors with soft transitions give the painting saturation and multilayeredness, intensifying the play of light and shadows. The work is filled with symbolism - the shawl here is a cover, a protection, and the hands are a guide between the open and the hidden. The painting leaves space for reflection and emotional response.
