Manuel Baptista's sensitive and geometrically refined abstraction finds exquisite and beautiful expression in this serigraphy. This fan, the formal support of a painter who habitually incorporates poetry into his creations, holds within its delicate boundaries the delicate weave of water, roses, and gold, transforming aspects into their crystalline essence.
