Totem of Blessed Subjectivity II 1948

Victor Brauner’s 1948 painting, *Totem of Blessed Subjectivity II*, features a surreal, multi-layered composition with humanoid figures. The figures are formed from fragmented body parts and are depicted against a landscape that appears to be both realistic and dreamlike. The painting is a prime example of Brauner’s artistic style, known as Surrealism, a movement that embraced the subconscious mind and challenged rational thought. This artwork, with its unsettling yet intriguing imagery, is a testament to Brauner’s mastery in capturing the absurdity and mystery of the human experience.
