“Architectural Figure No. 2” is a sketch and study created by the artist Julio Gonzalez in 1940, during the Cubism movement.
The artwork is executed with a meticulous hand, embodying the abstract and fragmented forms typical of Cubism. It depicts stylized, intersecting lines and shapes that suggest an anthropomorphic figure intertwined with architectural elements. The use of bold, sweeping strokes in grayscale emphasizes the geometric abstraction, while the details are minimal yet evocative. The composition appears balanced and thoughtful, harmonizing structure and form in a manner that challenges conventional perceptions of both figure and space.
