About the Item
Reflecting France’s fascination with Africans and Black Americans, and perhaps inspired by the Exposition Colonial Internationale held in Paris in 1931, this canvas shows an African family responding in horror to a rising cobra. The scene tells a story, of course, but the artist’s Bravura rendering of tropical foliage in brilliant colors is equally arresting. The painting is signed by the artist, René Mendès-France.
