symmetry of the female characters

Again, there is a mirror symmetry of the female character(s), in this case apparently dressed in typical 1960s fashion and probably dancing rather than fleeing out of frame.

Three Monuments Paintings Forming A Triptych

The Monuments is a collection of three paintings.  Each of the three artworks can be viewed as a piece in its own right yet they form a triptych.

The term triptych describes a three-panel artwork that is traditionally used in painting & sculpture.

Each one of the three Monuments paintings have abundant Art Deco elements and the three pieces each have distinct individual characteristics that determine their order in this vertical series.

Art Deco Elements

There is also a repeat of the Art Deco elements but the main feature is a circular device with a coloured surround reminiscent of a fairground attraction decor with light bulbs or even a Jukebox.

A View through a window

The image of the central male character, who appears to be entering through a door, might be interpreted as merely contained within the circle as a device for the overall image but an edge rim to the circle and the surrounding coloured decor, possibly with stylised light bulbs, might suggest that it could be a view through a window or port at the fairground.

The formal dress of the male does not lend to the idea that he is actually ready to party.
