ABOUT THE WORK

In Sanso’s poetic surrealism, a paradoxical quality exists in the artwork where a sense of mystery and dreaminess melds with the most profound beauty. Across his works, an extremely firm grasp of craft is evident: the brushstrokes are self-assured; the details and textures bearing depth and sophistication. He is best remembered by his depiction of landscape: timeless scenes that seem to have emerged fully from his mind. This work, however, departs from his usual landscape replete with life and blossoming. The relaxed landscape is paired with a matron of social standing that seems to be the focus of the whole oeuvre.
