In this composition, the artist moves towards a more abstract and atmospheric approach. Layers of pale ivory, blue-grey and muted ochre create a softly stratified surface, crossed by broad horizontal passages and subtle variations in texture. Rather than defining recognisable figures, the painting relies on the interaction of colour, material and gesture to evoke a sense of distance, recollection and quiet introspection.

The restrained palette and richly worked surface give the work a contemplative character. Traces of earlier marks appear beneath successive layers of paint, lending the composition depth and a sense of gradual transformation. Within the Infanzia series, this piece offers a more meditative interpretation of childhood, expressed through visual memory rather than explicit imagery.

Presented in a simple wooden inner frame with a contrasting black outer frame, Infanzia #4 is a distinctive contemporary work suited to a private art collection or a carefully curated modern interior. Its subtle colours and tactile surface invite close observation. This piece has an attribution mark,
