Fernando Botero is renowned for his distinct style, known as "Boterismo," which features figures with exaggerated, voluminous forms. This artistic choice isn't meant as satire or commentary on weight, but rather to emphasize the sensuality of form and volume itself. His unique approach often reinterprets classical subjects, imbuing them with his signature aesthetic.
