Catalogue Note
"Questa composizione, non datata, rieccheggia in forma totalmente rinnovata, i Bambini che scappano del 1955. (...) In questo senso la composizione potrebbe riferirsi al 1956 circa, quando Turcato, abbandonata ogni forma sia figurativa, sia geometrica, tende a risolvere il quadro esclusivamente sul piano del segno e del colore." (cit. in Martina De Luca, Turcato, Roma 1986)
