Description

A powerful vision captured in ink—two figures, one unforgettable story.

This exquisite limited-edition engraving, titled “Dos Mujeres”, instantly draws the eye with its refined linework and evocative narrative. Created and signed by renowned Mexican printmaker Damian de la Rosa in 1986, from an exclusive run of just twenty-five impressions—making it a rare treasure for serious collectors and lovers of contemporary Latin American art alike.

In the composition, two female figures emerge from sweeping, deliberate strokes. Their forms seem to lean toward one another—perhaps sisters sharing a secret, or archetypal representations of strength and compassion intertwined. De la Rosa’s minimal yet expressive style invites the viewer to linger, filling the spaces between the lines with their own stories. The subtle balance of negative space and texture hints at themes of unity, resilience, and the intimate bonds between women.

Damian de la Rosa has earned recognition in Mexico’s printmaking circles for revitalizing traditional engraving techniques while infusing them with modern sensibility. His works have been exhibited in regional galleries and select international shows, where critics praise his ability to merge classic craftsmanship with contemporary themes. Owning this piece means holding a fragment of Mexico’s rich artistic heritage and the broader movement of Latin American graphic art.

Printed on heavy, archival-quality paper, the engraving displays crisp lines and superb ink saturation that have been impeccably preserved for nearly four decades. Its excellent condition ensures that both its aesthetic impact and its investment value remain uncompromised. A fine frame and proper lighting will elevate its dramatic presence in any room—be it a modern loft, a cozy reading nook, or a curated gallery wall.

The year 1986 situates “Dos Mujeres” during a dynamic period in Mexican art when many creators explored identity, gender, and cultural memory through traditional media. Collectors of vintage prints and admirers of expressive figuration will appreciate the piece’s historical resonance and its emotional warmth.

Whether you’re an established collector or searching for a meaningful statement artwork, “Dos Mujeres” promises not just beauty, but a connection to stories untold, a celebration of womanhood, and a tangible piece of Mexican printmaking history.
