Lot Details

Mixed media
30 × 42 cm (11.8 × 16.5 in.)
Located in Portugal — EU free circulation

Maternidade condenses one of art's oldest subjects to its essentials: over a blue ground worked in texture, mother and child are drawn in dark contour, folded into a single form. The line does everything — protection, weight, embrace — while the blue field holds the pair in stillness. A small work with the concentration of an icon.
Sold unframed unless otherwise stated. Bidding 16 – 29 October 2026. Viewing at the Leilosoc Art Gallery, Praça Conde de Agralongo, Braga, from the public opening on 16 October, daily 15:00–21:00.
