Description
This is a very old painting, of which I have not a better photo. This photo was taken at the start of the work, so it lacks the terminations. This seems to be the story of my life ... today, I am concerned with taking photos but before, was not at all a concern.
The sunflower is a plant native to America, where the oldest evidence of their culture are found in Mexico dating from 2600 BC. Around 1515 the first sunflowers were brought from the Americas to Europe.
Sunflowers follow the sun. Throughout the day, the great flower guides its "face" to the sun, worshiping the Sun god. The image of this flower, with large petals symbolize the sun itself, evoking a feeling of warmth.For me they represent hope.
