Cavalo de Troia (The Trojan Horse) is a silkscreen.‎ The drawing is a representation of the wooden horse, developed by Odysseus, which the Greeks used during the Trojan War to enter the city of Troy.‎ The Trojans pulled the horse into their city as a victory trophy, not knowing there was a selected force of men hiding inside, who came out after reaching the city.‎Álvaro Siza started drawing at the age of six.‎ With a great variety of drawings on his portfolio, many of them are inspired by mythology and historic scenes.‎ Within this context, Álvaro Siza selected for MOR the three drawings he likes the most: Desenho, Cavalo de Troia and Rapto.‎“The drawings are what came to my mind in this very moment.‎ I like mythology and expressing the stories in images.‎ I have made a lot of mythological drawing in my life” Álvaro Siza.‎METHOD & MATERIALSSilkscreen technique (also known as screen printing) on Fabriano paper | 300gr.‎The original drawings were made using a ballpoint pen (Cavalo de Troia and Desenho) and a pencil (Rapto), all on white paper.‎ However, for the screen prints, instead of having the drawings simply printed on a white background, Siza opted to add soft colours on each drawing, enriching the visual experience.‎LIMITED EDITIONEach edition has a series of 50 prints, numbered and signed by the artist.‎ Each image is sold individually and unframed.‎
