A Boy / Un Niño by Toni Montero A boy in his mother’s arms while his father, dress

A boy in his mother’s arms while his father, dressed up as a harlequin, looks at him absorbed. Two characters, one in the centre of the painting, the other at the back to the right balancing on a ball, ball from another world? and the one sat to the right we have also seen in another place, and the staring monkey who looks older and wiser, also. They all bring with them parts of the spaces they have inhabited, like memories of places where they have been.
