Pegaso de Sol 1922

"Pegaso del Sol" (1922) by Argentine artist Xul Solar (1887-1963) depicts a winged horse soaring through the sky with a bright sun above it. The scene is dominated by a sense of movement and energy, the horse's wings and the sun's rays creating a dynamic composition. The artwork evokes a sense of mythical wonder and symbolism, characteristic of Solar's unique style that blended elements of mythology, folklore, and personal iconography. The use of bright colors and simplified forms contributes to the fantastical atmosphere of the artwork. This painting, as well as many other works by Solar, were influenced by his interest in mythology and esoteric beliefs. This intriguing piece reflects Solar's distinct approach to visual storytelling, inviting viewers to interpret its symbolism and explore the artist's unique vision.
