Cheap 'Waiting for You at the Window' (Brazil)
A woman sees the world pass by absorbed in curious expectation leaning out of a window of ancestral design. Andre de Miranda seeks to capture the charm of Brazils ancient architecture when doors and windows featured polychrome fanlights. In this xylograph de Miranda combines the strict formality of construction with the ephemeral power of a smile. Executed on Japanese paper with offset ink this xylograph print was originally featured in the book Bandeiras de Portas e Janelas do Brasil no Seculo XIX (Fanlights of Doors and Windows of Brazil in the XIX Century) by Tilde Canti (1983) . De Miranda makes available prints four and five from a limited edition of five. Titled To te esperando na janela in Portuguese. Unframed.
