A contemporary gelatin silver print enhanced with oil-based pigment titled "Cancion de Cuna, 1993" by Guatemalan photographer Luis Gonzalez Palma. Signed, titled, and numbered on verso. Edition of 15. In this hauntingly poetic image, the artist captures a young boy posed as a cherubic figure, seated against a dark, velvety backdrop with delicate wings affixed to his back. The child gazes directly at the viewer, his solemn expression counterbalancing the ethereal symbolism of the scene. A starkly white sculptural mask, cradled in his hands, draws the eye and creates a striking contrast against the sepia-toned photographic surface. The photograph exemplifies Gonzalez's signature approach - blending photography and painterly technique to imbue his portraits with a timeless, almost dreamlike quality.
From a private estate in Birmingham, MI. Additional Provenance: Jackson Fine Art Photography Gallery, Atlanta, GA. Original gallery tag on verso. Dimensions: 48.5"h x 32"w x .5"d (framed). In very good vintage condition. Full condition reports are available upon request.
Luis Gonzalez (1957- ) is an acclaimed Latin American photographer celebrated for his evocative, symbol-laden imagery that fuses traditional photographic processes with painterly interventions. His work has been exhibited widely across the Americas and Europe, including prestigious venues such as the Museo de Arte Moderno in Mexico City and the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach. Gonzalez's photographs are held in significant public and private collections, earning recognition for their technical mastery and their ability to merge cultural narrative with universal themes of memory, identity, and spirituality.
