Anti-reflective framing of the work Exploración de las fuentes del río Orinoco (Exploration of the Orinoco River's Source), 1959, by the surrealist Spanish-Mexican painter Remedios Varo. The poster comes ready-framed with a matte laminated surface, significantly reducing reflections from light sources compared to ordinary glass, and providing a beautiful, calm visual expression without glare. The frame is made of oak veneer.
Remedios Varo, who declared that "the dream world and the real world are the same," sought to combine widely disparate techniques, fantasies, and ideas in her paintings in an almost alchemical way. Her works have an enigmatic, cinematic character and often incorporate hybrid creatures.
She utilized surrealism's chance-based processes but was simultaneously incredibly precise, meticulous, and classical in her painterly expression and color scheme, which has clear references to Italian painting from the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance.
In Exploración de las fuentes del río Orinoco, the traveler's arrival at the river's source is accompanied by a flood created by the image's own medium. The work revolves around the narrative endeavor to find an inexhaustible source of water.
