Bernardo Marques created this ink and watercolor landscape, "Sem título (Paisagem do Marão)", which translates to "Untitled (Landscape of Marão)." Marques, working in the 20th century, offers us a view of the Marão mountain range, a striking geographical feature in Portugal. The sweeping scene captures the rugged terrain with broad strokes, yet there is a tension within the landscape, as its very beauty is born of the earth's upheavals. Marques's personal connection to Portugal is evident in his choice of subject matter. His landscapes often reflect a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of his homeland. This artwork invites us to reflect on the intersection of national identity and our relationship with the land. The artwork moves beyond mere representation, inviting us to contemplate how our identities are rooted in the landscapes we inhabit.
