Three figures define a paradisiacal balance that the artist learnt over a short period of time. The poet, the artist's self-projection, holds a branch with a dreamy gaze while lying on his lover's lap. Close to them, an almost incorporeal angel appears as a symbol of inspiration and peace. The allegorical dimension is complete. Transformed into symbols of a personal grammar that Eloy developed more intensely in the last years of his life, the figures inhabiting the painting's overtly codified space configure the possibility of stabilisation and interval within a process of disintegration of meaning itself.
Mário Eloy (Algés, 15 March 1900 - Lisbon, 5 September 1951) was a Portuguese expressionist painter. In 1944, he had to leave painting because of a severe mental illness and spent the rest of his life in a mental institution in Rio de Mouro.
