Introspection (2022): 

This painting is a story of self-discovery and introspection. It reminds us that sometimes the most powerful force we can tap into is the one that lies within ourselves, waiting to be recognized and unleashed. The girl seems to have a realization - the panther is not a separate wild animal, but instead represents her own inner world, her spirit animal, her other skin.

The Bad Mothers (1894):
A young woman in the middle of an icy landscape. With her child at her breast, she is trapped in the branches of a tree. With her head turned to the side and her body bent, the mother struggles against the baby with all her strength. In this barren mountain world, Giovanni Segantini shows us the fate of women who live out physical desire but refuse motherhood. According to the painter himself about his moralizing picture, it was “the scourges of purgatory” that such mothers had to suffer as punishment. Women have no choice but to accept their destiny in order to find salvation. With their children they dance purified in the background towards the mountains.

Huldigung an Jacquin ("Jacquins Denkmal"): 

The first impression: chaotic, an overabundance of plants and flowers - but only on the surface. Rather, what is shown is the diversity of the plant kingdom, which was divided into 24 classes by the Swedish botanist Carl von Linné (1707–78) and thus classified systematically for the first time. From his urn, he monitors what is happening – including the docile cockatoo and the clumsy monkey. But there is more hidden in the picture. For example, two inconspicuous plants are intertwined on the base above the bust of the Viennese botanist Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin (1727–1817). They are Linnaea borealis and Jacquinia mucronata, named after Linnaeus and Jacquin. Knapp painted the picture to commemorate the latter.

motherhood:
Maternity  was a tribute to Guayasamin´s  mother and to all mothers in the world as a symbol of defense of life.
Guayasamín's relationship with his mother was very close. The childhood memory of him together with his mother left an indelible mark on the artist. This is why when he paints his works on the Age of Tenderness, he reflects in them all the maternal love. We can see in these works how the artist captures the affection and protective nature of a mother towards her children. That unbreakable bond between mother and children and the utter innocence of children. They are part of the 100 paintings that he made under the theme "While I live I always remember you".
"My painting is to hurt, to scratch and hit people's hearts.
To show what Man does against Man"
