Magpies

SOLD.

A fun and striking mid-century semi abstract modernist composition of magpies, executed in oil onto board.

The painting depicts three magpies in nature, standing on a tree branch and surrounded by green leaves.

Containing elements of cubism and abstraction, the artist has fragmented this composition down to shapes of contrasting colours and sizes using a rich and lively palette. Not only has he skilfully created an appearance of a stained glass window, but he has also created a sense of three-dimensionality in the way the respective colours are paired and  contrasted together.

This painting is housed in a wood frame with an inner linen lined border. There is some slight wear to the paint surface on the artwork, but this is commensurate with age and does not detract from its overall attractiveness. There is a small loss to the lower left section of the frame, as shown in close ups.

Size: 34 x 35cm (including frame)
