About the Item
This surrealist etching by Mexican artist Teódulo Rómulo depicts a fantastical cow adorned with geometric and textural motifs, blending human and animal features in a signature fusion of folklore and modern symbolism. With precise line work and subtle coloration, Vaca que no da leche reflects Rómulo’s exploration of rural iconography and narrative absurdity. The print is rich in metaphor and characteristic of his mid-1980s production, a period when the artist was actively producing graphic works that bridged the mythic and the satirical.
Rómulo’s prints are held in private and institutional collections throughout Mexico and internationally, and he is recognized for his contributions to postwar Mexican printmaking.
