The artwork titled “563A Spectacles in the Small Face” was created by the artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser in 1967 using the medium of woodcut. This piece belongs to the art movement known as Transautomatism and falls under the abstract genre. It is part of a series called “Nana Hyaku Mizu.”
The artwork exhibits a vivid and dynamic composition, characterized by expressive use of color and abstract forms. At the center, prominent circular shapes in red and orange, resembling spectacles, dominate the piece, set against a background of varying shades of purple, green, and blue. The intricate linear patterns create a sense of depth and texture, while the organic forms and vibrant hues evoke a whimsical and surreal aesthetic. The overall effect is both visually striking and thought-provoking, embodying Hundertwasser’s unique artistic vision and abstract style.
