Gravure, Uno 1967

"Gravure, Uno" is a 1967 work by Cuban artist Wifredo Lam, known for his distinctive blend of Surrealism, Cubism, and Afro-Cuban imagery. This artwork features a stylized, almost mythical creature with a bird perched atop its head, perhaps referencing the artist's exploration of African and Caribbean folklore and mythology. The intricate lines and hatched shading create a sense of depth and texture, characteristic of Lam's signature style.
