The Raft of the Medusa II

 850

technique: acrylic on canvas

dimensions: 100 x120 cm

year: 2018

depiction:  The original picture The Raft of Medusa is a painting of the french romantic Théodore Géricault. It shows a scene with a shipwreck of french sailors near the West African coast. The sailor’s dispair  was so big that even cases of cannibalism emerged. Here is my allusion to this painting where the shipwrecked sailors are replaced with African refugees.
