Botero Blu Italian Tapestry

Botero Blu Italian Tapestry

Botero Blu is an Italian jacquard woven wall tapestry. The artwork is a rendering of the work of Fernando Botero Angulo (born 1932), a figurative artist and sculptor from Medellín, Colombia. His signature style, also known as Boterismo, depicts people and figures in large, exaggerated volume, which can represent political criticism or humor, depending on the piece. He is considered the most recognized and quoted living artist from Latin America, and his art can be found in highly visible places around the world, such as Park Avenue in New York City and the Champs-Élysées in Paris.
