“Theme & Variations Decorative Plate #150 (Two Circles with Faces)” is an artwork created by Fornasetti, an artist associated with the Surrealism movement. This piece, which falls under the genre of portraiture, features two faces within circular forms rendered in black and white. The larger circle prominently displays a detailed face, while the smaller overlapping circle contains another face, subtly integrating into the background.
The artwork is characterized by its surrealistic style, evoking a sense of dreamlike ambiguity. The faces within the circles are intricately detailed, with finely rendered features that highlight the artist’s technical skill. The interplay of the two circles creates a harmonious balance, while also imparting an enigmatic quality to the piece as a whole. The monochromatic color scheme adds to the surrealist aesthetic, enhancing the viewer’s focus on the expressions and details of the faces.
