The artwork titled “Ramona Y La Adivina” was created in 1976 by the artist Antonio Berni. It belongs to the Pop Art movement and is categorized as a genre painting.
In the artwork, two figures are positioned in an intimate setting, depicting a scene between fortune telling and curiosity. The left figure, dressed in a somber black cloak, seems to be an older woman, possibly a fortune teller or seer, characterized by her direct gaze and distinctive facial features. She holds a red crystal ball on the table, enhancing the mystical atmosphere. The right figure, a younger woman dressed in modern, somewhat provocative attire, appears to be the inquirer seeking insights or predictions. The background of the artwork is adorned with symbolic imagery including a large hand adorned with esoteric symbols and a possibly tarot-inspired illustration entitled “Le Diable.” The dark, subdued backdrop contrasts sharply with the colorful, intricate details of the symbols and illustrations, emphasizing the otherworldly theme of the scene.
