Titled by the artist himself \u003cem\u003eAnomalía en el Mar del Japón\u003c\/em\u003e (Anomaly in the Sea of Japan), the work presents a \u003cstrong\u003esurrealist seascape\u003c\/strong\u003e dominated by an extraordinary vertical form that seems to rise from the water to merge with the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe intense use of blue, orange, violet, and magenta places the painting within the Neo-Fauvist language that the author himself defined on the reverse as \u003cstrong\u003e“Heberista”\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAn anomaly in the landscape\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title is essential for interpreting the composition. Rising above a sea constructed with blue and turquoise brushstrokes is a large ascending structure, halfway between a wave, a marine formation, and an impossible presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe verticality completely breaks the habitual horizontality of the landscape and focuses the gaze on the center of the canvas.
