About this work

This painting shows a large package wrapped in paper and twine. The paper is a light beige color, and the twine is thin and brown. The package is rectangular, with the paper folded over the edges and creased in the middle. The paper appears to be wrinkled and crumpled in some areas, giving the package a rough texture. The twine is tied around the middle of the package, holding it together. The background of the painting is a solid black color, which makes the package stand out. The artist's attention to detail in rendering the texture and folds of the paper is impressive. To see more works by the artist who created this piece, look up Claudio Bravo.
