Item Description
Description
This vibrant oil on board depicts a striking rural scene of a man leading a donkey against the backdrop of bold tropical vegetation. Rendered in a simplified, modernist style, the composition is defined by strong, flat planes of color and a palette dominated by earthy browns, deep greens, and sunlit yellows. The figure, dressed in a vivid shirt and wide-brimmed hat, is silhouetted with confident brushstrokes, while the donkey stands solidly beside him, loaded with goods, suggesting themes of labor and tradition.
Artist
