“Four Musicians” is a genre painting created by Fernando Botero in 1984 and belongs to the Naïve Art, also known as Primitivism, art movement. The artwork depicts four musicians, dressed in formal attire, performing with their respective instruments. Their distinctive, exaggerated proportions are emblematic of Botero’s unique artistic style, evoking a sense of whimsy and charm. In the background, a dance scene unfolds, with couples swaying to the rhythm, further enriching the lively atmosphere of the composition. The use of vivid, yet muted tones, coupled with the simplistic and almost childlike depiction, renders this piece a notable contribution to the Naïve Art movement.
