The artwork titled “Desert Rocks,” created by Eyvind Earle in 1991 in the United States, belongs to the Magic Realism art movement and is categorized under the landscape genre.
The vast tableau of the artwork portrays a striking desert scene distinguished by jagged rock formations that are bathed in a play of shadow and light. The sharp, geometric structures of the rocks juxtapose against the soft gradient background of the sky, which transitions from a deep blue to a subtle light hue, invoking a surreal and tranquil atmosphere. The sparse, minimalist approach amplifies the majestic and enigmatic aura of the desert landscape, while the meticulous detailing of the rock surfaces contributes to the dreamlike quality characteristic of Magic Realism.
