This painting is a bold, minimalist representation of a standing figure, shown from the waist down. The figure wears a red skirt, blue coat or outer garment, and blue shoes with lighter blue uppers, and holds a brown walking stick, which adds a sense of balance the composition.
The style is flat and graphic, with solid blocks of colour and no shading or detail, creating a sense of modernist abstraction. The background consists of a light yellow wall, a mint green doorframe, and a warm ochre wooden floor with black lines indicating floorboards. The figure’s pale legs contrast against the colourful clothes and shoes, and the use of simplified forms gives the painting a striking, almost poster-like appearance.
The painting evokes themes of presence and stability, presented through a visually clean and stylized composition.
The painting is unframed but can be hung as is (the edges of the canvas have also been painted). The painting is in excellent vintage condition.
