Artist, Cuban, 1910 - 1991

The image displays bold, angular shapes and lines arranged in an abstract composition. Seen are a circular shape in the top left corner, a star-like figure nearby, geometric patterns leading to an archway at the center where a human silhouette stands. Surrounding the central passageway are swirling lines evoking movement, akin to clouds or waves. In the lower section, floral patterns emerge with distinct petal shapes resembling blooming flowers, and a butterfly shape is present in the bottom left corner. On the right side, a facial profile emerges within the abstract forms, partly overlapped by floral designs. The dense and intricate arrangement suggests connections with natural and everyday elements through abstract representation.
