Villa-Lobos e Beethoven, por Sotero Cosme

Violinist, visual artist and diplomat, Sotero Cosme (1905-1978) was born in Porto Alegre (Brazil) and is considered one of the best designers of his generation. With his recognized love for music, Sotero Cosme produced engravings of great names in classical music, including Bach, Beethoven and Villa-Lobos. In the engravings above (Villa-Lobos and Beethoven), the cloudy and dramatic expression of the European composer contrasts with the strength and certain grandeur of Villa-Lobos.
