The artwork, titled “Floresta,” is the creation of the acclaimed artist Tarsila do Amaral. It belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) and Surrealism art movements and is categorized within the genre of landscape painting.
“Floresta” presents a striking visual of an abstract, dream-like forest scene. The composition features exaggerated forms and vibrant colors, typical of Amaral’s unique style. A prominent element in the artwork is the large tree with cascading, almost fluid branches, rendered in deep green shades. The background displays a series of tall, elongated structures, which could be interpreted as tree trunks or columns, contributing to the surreal quality of the scene. In the foreground, a cluster of pink, round shapes adds a contrasting burst of color that draws the viewer’s eye. The overall effect is one of whimsical fantasy, blending natural elements with imaginative abstraction.
