"Samba," created in 1945 by Brazilian artist Anita Malfatti, is a vibrant depiction of a lively samba dance. The artwork is full of movement and energy, with figures dancing and playing music in a flurry of colorful brushstrokes. The warm, earthy tones create a sense of joy and celebration, capturing the spirit of this iconic Brazilian dance. The painting's bold composition and expressive brushwork are characteristic of Malfatti's unique style, which combined European influences with Brazilian themes.
