CATALOGUE NOTES
F.N. Souza's repertoire of subjects covered still life landscapes nudes and icons of Christianity in a distorted form. In his drawings he managed to capture fine details in his forms. He also used a combination of crosshatched strokes that made up the overall structure of his subject. This oil on board from 1956 depicts the head of a man. Souza painted various heads in the 1950s and '60s in line with his gamut of figurative art.
