This symbolic composition by Agim Zajmi is connected to the Otranto tragedy (1997), reflecting mourning and collective memory through the figure of women from Vlora. The group of women dressed in white and red embodies grief, dignity, and remembrance. The act of offering flowers to the sea evokes loss, exile, and the Albanian migration crisis in the Adriatic. A powerful memorial work, ideal for collectors of symbolic painting and historical narratives.
