In his catalogue essay for Daphnis's 1993 retrospective, Professor Louis Zona noted: 'The success of H-7-83 is drawn from the simple grace of balanced red and blue arcs subtly cradling a central band of yellow lines. Ethereal in nature, the painting's widely spaced lineal elements permit the pervasive power of the white canvas to tint and effectively soften all colour content.'
