"Macumba" is a 1958 still life painting by Brazilian artist Emiliano Di Cavalcanti. The composition features a vibrant array of objects, including a doll, a knife, a drum, musical instruments, and stylized figures, all set against a backdrop of colorful geometric shapes. Di Cavalcanti, known for his exploration of Brazilian culture and folklore in his art, uses bold colors and simplified forms to create a visually striking and symbolic representation of the Afro-Brazilian religious practice of Macumba.
