MAP OF TEMPLE OF PHALLOS AT TROLYDOS | 1966-71 | photo by Ann Cady, 2024 | ©2026 Norman Daly Art: This map features a striking composition with a deep blue background, overlaid with an abstract, weathered piece of fabric divided into three sections; the left section is dark and textured, the center portion is a burlap-like material with visible fraying and small perforations, while the right section is somewhat lighter and smoother, giving a sense of contrast and harmony; additionally, two grid-like patterns appear towards the bottom left, adding an interesting geometric element to the piece.
