Couple Embraced in a Tropical Garden – Fortaleza (Brazil), 1983

Oil on Isorel, signed ED

A significant oil painting on Isorel panel depicting a couple embracing amidst lush tropical vegetation. Created in Fortaleza, in the state of Ceará, Brazil, this work immediately captivates with its fresh color palette, spontaneous brushwork, and the warmth it exudes.

Signed “ED” and dated August 12, 1983, this painting is fully in keeping with the spirit of Brazilian popular art of the 1980s. Despite extensive research, we have been unable to attribute this work with certainty to a specific artist. Nevertheless, it exhibits all the characteristics that made Brazilian figurative painting of this period so successful: vibrant colors, freedom of expression, exuberant vegetation, and the poetry of everyday life.

The subject, rendered with great sensitivity, presents a scene that is at once tender, joyful, and timeless. Its generous size and strong visual impact make it a first-rate decorative piece, capable on its own of enlivening an interior and becoming a true conversation starter.

The reverse bears the original inscriptions mentioning Fortaleza as well as its Brazilian provenance.
