MIERCOLES, EL DIECISIETE DE FEBRERO, VEINTE-DIEZ
Another comparison, this time to Giorgio Ghisi's 1561 multi-titled engraving The Allegory of Life or The Dream of Raphael or The Melancholy of Michelangelo. The Hammond paintings are The Green Room II, 2009 and Perfect Pitch, 2007. The Ghisi print is obviously a strong lodestone for Hammond, as he's used both symbols from the print (the enlarging horizontal swirl and the pose of the Diana-type figure, who is probably an allegory for an adventurer) and the composition.
