A Melody

SOLD.

A lyrical and emotive mid 20th century still life painting, executed in oil onto canvas. The composition depicts an elegant display of a violin, a musical sheet, 2 fruits and glass objects placed atop a table.

Large broad diagonal brushstrokes fill the background and foreground of the canvas in an expressive and rhythmic manner –  almost resembling the visual melody of the violin playing, as well as the artist’s passion for music.

A muted darker pastel palette comprising shades of purple, blue and pink have been used, imbuing the work with both a soft yet dramatic feel that is aligned to its melodic qualities.

This oil on canvas is in excellent vintage condition. It is housed in a gilt frame with an inner linen lining, that complements the work very well. The frame has slight markings and scuffs, but this is very minor.

Size: 45 x 75 cm (including frame)
