Barrier Canyon Style Panel - Bartlett Panel

Barrier Canyon Style anthropomorphs can convey a great deal of power and mystery. It is interesting that all of the figures in this panel appear different from one another. Many do bear similarities to figures in other panels though. The torpedo or pod anthropomorph on the far right is similar to many other anthropomorphs in other BCS panels. The bug-eyed figure that is second to right also bears some resemblance to figures in some BCS panels. In particular this anthropomorph reminds me of a figure on the Head of Sinbad Panel. It appears that exfoliation has eliminated much of the detail of the far left figures. In my opinion this only has the effect of increasing the mystery behind the figures.
