A male figure seen from behind, three-quarter length, wearing orange-red swim trunks. The figure's skin is painted entirely in cool blue — not as shadow, not as atmospheric effect, but as a deliberate chromatic decision that makes the body feel superhuman, elemental, slightly alien.
The background is a radiant field of yellow-green, with yellow dominating the upper right and green filling the lower left, creating a naturalistic sense of light source without being literal about it. The small white rectangular marks scattered across the upper background are mysterious — they have the quality of brushwork test marks, or perhaps chalk marks, or small white stones or flowers described so briefly they remain ambiguous.
The decision to paint human skin blue against the warm ground creates a powerful complementary dynamic. This is a work about color as meaning, not just color as description. The figure never feels cold despite being blue, because the blue itself is warm-toned, shifted slightly toward violet. Works in dialogue with 071 — both are standing male figures, but where Bacchus faces outward and beckons, Blue Man turns away.
