José Cúneo worked in series. In this sense, his moons make up a very broad and representative group of this modality that allowed him to deepen and put in tension the relationship between procedure and subject. In 1930, upon his return from Europe, he settled in the interior of Uruguay, in the city of Florida, where he began to paint series of ranches, moons and watercolors of the Uruguayan countryside. Far from any naturalistic pretension, the artist focused on the pictorial fact. Here the moon becomes the magical, mysterious and supernatural protagonist of a threatening sky with a thick framework of clouds that, in turn, determines the dramatic character of the landscape in which the bower that shelters the horses seems to be subordinated to a second plane, thanks to the fact that the subject becomes an excuse to turn the skies into matter and, above all, into a plastic fact.
