Narrator 1937

Paul Delvaux's 1937 painting "Narrator" features a surrealist landscape with a nude male figure in the foreground and a smaller figure in the distance. The composition is dominated by the figure's outstretched hand and a framed painting that depicts a landscape with a figure and a pendulum. The painting showcases Delvaux's signature style, characterized by elongated figures, haunting landscapes, and an eerie atmosphere. This work is a prime example of his exploration of themes of solitude, alienation, and the passage of time.
