Untitled (Fish). 31 x 45. Signed, dated 1958, framed. In the 1940s, the French painter Pierre Robert Desfossés established his workshop, "Le Hangar" in Elisabethville. Mwila was a student there during the mid-20th century. The style of painting that emerged from Desfossés workshop is poetic-narrativist. It is seemingly flat and decorative due to its repetitive patterns.

This animal scene shows the sublime elegance of nature Lines full of harmony to delight us..
