Catalogue Note: Feliciano Carvallo (b. 1920) is one of Venezuela's most recognized artists and has widely exhibited his work along with other artists of his generation from Central and South America. An indigenous artist, Carvallo is largely self-taught, and his works often blur the traditional line between reality and dream. The present example blurs that line as well and represents Carvallo working at the peak of his artistic powers.

Excellent condition.
