About the piece
Created in 1914 by Portuguese artist Amadeo de Souza Cardoso, this oil on canvas work titled 'Ponte' is a masterful example of early modernist abstraction. The painting transforms a bridge and its surroundings into a rhythmic composition of geometric planes, utilizing a rich impasto-like texture and a balanced palette of earth tones and deep blues that bridge cubism and expressionism.
