Hiroshima (painting)

Hiroshima, also known as ANT 79, is a painting by the French painter Yves Klein, created in 1961. Through the use of both anthropometry and monochromy, the work pays tribute to the victims of Hiroshima, affected by the atomic bomb dropped on August 6, 1945, by the United States. The painting refers to the imprints of the burned bodies on the walls of the city. It is held in the Menil Collection, in Houston.^[1]
