Description[]
His oeuvre is a reference to his muse Olga Tamayo. Both figures wear a bun that used to wear frequently his wife.
The Indian heritage is visible in the skin color. The master created a new narrative of Mexico and the femininity. The red tree creates a contrasting balance with the weight of the two female figures.
In 2016 the piece was displayed for the "ofrenda" [altar] for the Day of the Dead of Museo Soumaya– Plaza Loreto, Mexico City, Mexico
