Protecting the Flag

"Gebre Kristos paintings are remarkable not only for their

technical and formal achievements but also for their symbolic

power and psychological insight. He observed and

commented upon the political strife (trouble) of Ethiopias in a

symbolically expressionsistic way. His works can sometimes

be very sophisticated (difficult) for the general viewer, but

even as such, they are a feast for the eyes, and are easier to

digest and enjoy than some for the more complicated,

dostorted, and awkward compositions of other articsts of his

generation".

This painting has many meanings spicaily for ethiopian. The paintor name is Gebre Kirstos Desta. His is Ethiopian artist.
