"Allegro (Sonata of the Sea)" is a striking painting that vividly captures the essence of the marina through its dynamic composition and vibrant colors. Created using tempera on paper, the artwork embodies Symbolism as it conveys deeper emotional and spiritual meanings beneath its visual surface. The swirling forms and fantastical elements evoke a sense of surreal Surrealism, immersing viewers in an allegorical voyage across the sea, where every brushstroke tells a story of movement, mystery, and imagination.
