This depicts the birth of the elves that spring from the body of Imir, the giant. They emerge in the form of small insects. Divided into two groups, they head either skyward or toward the earth. Those of the air are elves and the others are gnomes, Edgar Aguirre explains. His bright palette of primary hues lends a fairytale air to this painting. Titled El nacimiento de los elfos in Spanish.
