This vibrant tempera painting presents two intertwined serpents with ornate scaled bodies in rich jewel tones of blue, gold, red, and purple. The snakes are depicted with expressive faces and detailed patterning, their bodies forming a dynamic compositional loop around a central void. Botanical elements including delicate aquatic plants and grasses frame the composition, while colorful abstract terrain grounds the scene below. The work showcases a masterful blend of naturalistic observation with decorative pattern-making and bold color application characteristic of Brazilian modernist traditions.
