In Endre Szasz's painting “United Nations” we observe the surrealistic image of four figures, their heads and bodies overlaying and interacting upon each other in a most imaginative fashion. Potent symbolism in the form of highly accentuated hands adds an element of the spiritual to this painting. One man holds his hand to his breast in the attitude of a sage, while another raises his hand in a fashion that symbolizes voice and song. Yet another holds a light in his hand, its brilliant luminosity representing the cosmic force, the creative energy that surges through us all. United in their powers of the spirit, these figures emanate an assurance that mankind is capable of a connected vision--he can see all things in one.
