Description:
|
|
Vast swirling composition that combines the lived events and dreams that have always inhabited the painter: the rabbi grandfather, the marriage with Bella, the birth of Ida, the two exoduses, that of Russia by horse and wagon, the one to America by boat, musicians, acrobats and dancers, Paris all in blue and, at the end of the trajectory, the painter with the palette that seems to contemplate this vast epic. Above him, wrapping his arms, Vava his companion, the beneficial ally, who seems to be born from his painting to appease the anxiety and torment of the creator.
