Description
This painting belongs to the serie, "Mujeres del pais de Abril" and is my homage to Amalia Rodrigues (Portugal, 1920 - 1999) who was the most important of the Portuguese "Fado" singers of the twentieth century. She was known as the "Queen of Fado," being the most famous female artist of this style of song. She was certainly, the most influential female Fado singer outside Portugal's boarders. Amalia knew the art to syncretize the urban with the rural; which is the uniting of the popular and the studied through her naturally suited, emotional and sensual voice.

Such a lovely painting. I was born in Brazil and we had a few Portuguese neighbors who liked to play her music!

Your site is a magnificent tribute to women and female achievement. It is joyful and iconic. My favorite! Amalia Rodriguez and Maddalena are in the same league xxxx L/F Amalia's voice always plays in my head.
