The piece owned by the Museum of Art (MUSA) depicts a male character petting a dog, surrounded by elements typical of his paintings. Dogs, cats, horses and several types of birds form part of his iconographic repertoire, where constant references are made to the transformation of rural traditions, which change people’s ways of acting and dressing when they come into contact with major cities. His work has a playful simplicity and a sense of humor that subtly comes to light in all of his paintings through soft brushstrokes of harmonious colors, reflecting his skills as a painter.
