FamilyFernando Botero

107
In this bronze sculpture (1999), Botero compresses the complexities of family into a single, surreal stack: father holding child, both standing atop the mother. With exaggerated forms and theatrical stillness, the work blends affection with satire, challenging conventional portrayals of domestic roles and emotional weight.
