Construction of Highway II

Composition in gray tones (predominant), black, blue, ochre, green, white and earthy. Smooth texture. It depicts construction of Via Dutra in Sierra portions of the macaws, as if being seen through a lens approximation of seeing a part of a roller. The predominance of gray tones and contrast of light and dark volumes give the paint composition of photographic characteristics. The scene takes place on the bed of a road under construction, on which a few mounds of gravel, looking to the right, part of a juggernaut facing. The road bed cuts the composition diagonally looking to the left, the curb and still on the same side, in lower and flat bottom, arid lanscape with small elevations, some trees, horizon and sky range white darkening to deep blue at the top.
