The Red Stairway 

"The Red Stairway" is a striking painting by Ben, characterized by its bold use of color and evocative imagery. The composition features a stark contrast between the dominant blue hues of the building and sky and the vibrant red of the staircase, suggesting a pathway to a different reality. The figure ascending the staircase, possibly a symbol of hope or perseverance, adds a sense of human presence in this otherwise desolate landscape. The painting's overall effect is one of mystery and intrigue, leaving the viewer to ponder the meaning of the journey ahead.
