This painting shows a group of people in bright, flat colors standing outside a simple house. One person is weaving at a loom inside an open doorway, while others chat or hold bags. The men wear wide-brimmed hats and dark vests, and the women have long skirts with embroidered belts. The ground is patterned like woven mats, and the walls of the house are pink with green shutters. The artist used bold outlines and simple shapes to keep the scene clear and lively. The colors pop against each other—deep blues, greens, and reds—without much shading. Look up Tombé, Juan Yalanda, guambiano to see more of his work.
