Hans-Peter Szameit - Allegory

Hans-Peter Szameit - Allegory
oil on canvas

I posted on the blog some time ago a forceful Portrait of a Blind Painter. I came yesterday on this Allegory: it is also a great painting!

Everything is perfect here: above all, the ambiguous smile of the personage balances the whole.

The Blind Painter from Alexandria

Hans-Peter Szameit Portrait of a Blind Painter

It is a forceful painting! It communicates an essential truth - and thousand words would not be able to render it to us again.

The author, Hans-Peter Szameit, was born in 1967 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. He is of Norwegian descent.

The painting is on view at the Principle Gallery in Alexandria, Virginia.
