Federico Castellón

Untitled
1965

This is an artwork divided into two panels. The upper panel depicts a dark silhouette of a figure leaning over a reclining, pale figure with touches of green, set against a dark background. The lower panel shows three figures: one with a skeletal appearance bending over, a central figure with a striped garment and a neutral expression, and a figure with a dark hat looking downward. The image has a somber and contemplative mood, with a signature at the bottom right.
