Tomás Harris

Associated Names

Tomás Joseph Harris

Artist, British, 1908 - 1964

The image features a central sun on the horizon. Various objects and organic forms frame the landscape. The sun casts a radiating pattern with short, energetic brushstrokes. Swirling lines and intricate patterns fill the space, depicting elements like a cactus and serpent-like shapes. The color palette is monochromatic, with shades of sepia and black. Details of leaves and flowing lines create a sense of motion.
