Description
This artifact is Ramon Martinez's photo of wall art where Garcia Marquez is painted along with some descriptive text.
The submitter provided the following about the artifact’s history: "This is a portrait of the late Garcia Marquez, a famous author from Colombia. The wall paintng is entirely white with outlines of him in shades of black. The portrait is accompanied by a quote that gives reference to the abundance of stories he has created. This quote is from a song that refrences the late Garcia Marquez which was a very famous author in Latin America. The quote can be translated “I have more stories to tell you than Garcia Marquez”. He is recognized as one of the greatest authors in Latin American history and a tribute to his portrait with a recognition from an artist is enough justice for the late author."

The artwork is painted onto a brick wall with white and black paint, with the white as a backdrop and the black as the tool for creating the words and shadows.

Beneath this is the illustration of Garcia Marquez, done in black paint.
