This evocative painting by Armand Jamar is part of a larger series inspired by literary and religious themes. In The Purgatory, Jamar depicts a procession of human figures moving through a shadowy landscape beneath a turbulent sky, echoing Dante’s Divine Comedy.
Executed in his expressive late style, the work showcases Jamar’s deep interest in light and emotion. It is signed, dated, and titled on the front, in good condition and framed.
