Aftermath | Marion Adnams | 1946

In this haunting surrealist composition, Adnams presents a desolate coastal promenade where a bleached animal skull, adorned with a vivid red ribbon, lies against the cold geometry of stone and sea. The empty pavilion and swirling ironwork suggest an eerie stillness after destruction, blending beauty and decay in equal measure. Painted in the aftermath of World War II, the work reflects both personal and collective desolation—an unsettling meditation on survival, memory, and the fragility of life amidst ruin.
