Paisaje con rayos
1941
Julio González is famous for forging heavy, angular iron sculptures, but this 1941 sketch reveals a surprisingly light and whimsical side of the artist. Created just a year before his death, the drawing features a fluffy, cloud-like tree with a reddish trunk floating over a field of scribbled yellow 'rays' or sunlight. The date '28.7.41' is scrawled in the bottom corner, capturing a fleeting moment of color during the dark days of World War II. It’s a charming glimpse into the sketchbook of the man who actually taught Picasso how to weld metal.
