Observations
Across all four renders, the style combines intensely saturated red, blue, black, and orange with heavy drawn contours and dense scratched, crosshatched marks. Figures are elongated and angular, arranged in active theatrical scenes against richly worked geometric or architectural grounds, producing a forceful, highly expressive painted-print appearance.
