House Manhufe 1910

"House Manhufe," painted in 1910 by Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, depicts a landscape with a strong emphasis on architectural forms, particularly a house with an orange tiled roof. The artist, known for his contributions to the Portuguese avant-garde, used bold brushstrokes and vivid colors to create a dynamic and expressive scene, characteristic of his style, influenced by Cubism and Fauvism. The composition features simplified forms and flattened perspective, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow and the influence of nature on architecture.
