Composition
Candido Portinari1946
Projeto Portinari
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Composition in black and white. Sinuous lines and straight. Shaded obtained by tangled and intersecting lines more or less close. Non-figurative composition with a predominance of amoeboid forms: in the lower on the right corner there is suggestion of a large egg lying. Straight and sinuous lines together occupy part of the composition and wider sinuous lines seem to wrap it.
