Abstract Coast

SOLD.

A large and gentle coastal landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1953 on the reverse.

Executed in a semi-abstract manner, the artist has intentionally left details of the coastal landscape fairly obscure as he depicts two boats by the edge of a body of water, and a row of trees lining the coast in the background of the painting.

The composition has been skilfully reconstructed down to blocks of contrasting colours and brushstrokes. Using a restrained palette comprising darker and lighter shades of blue, green and brown, a combination of short and gentle brushstrokes have been used to paint the lighter shades of the sky and sea, and swift and expressive brushstrokes have been used to paint the darker shades of the trees, boats and land in the foreground. These contrasting tones and brushstrokes have been thoughtfully executed to demonstrate depth to the painting. Overall, this restful composition has a very calming quality, and can add a soothing effect to any interior space.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame with linen outer border and an inner gilt window. There are minor scuffs to the frame, but overall the painting and frame are both in very good vintage condition.
