Candido Portinari1956
Projeto Portinari
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Composition in black and white. Straight and contour lines. It depicts girl studying, sitting in front. The girl is with her head bent over what appears to be a table, has represented facial features, hair with bangs and pigtails and holds a pencil in his on the left hand as if writing. Intersecting lines in every area of the composition, confuses the background to the table and the chair.
