A large and very striking mid century modernist abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas around the 1960s.

The painting is full of textural detail, as the artist has added an aggregate to certain areas (possibly sand or bitumen), creating a gritty and three dimensional effect in those areas. In other areas, large swathes of smooth creamy paint have been applied, in a restricted colour palette. The artist has worked in deep, rich tones and has used a myriad of curved forms to create the composition. There appears to be two figures, with one perhaps embracing another. However, the artist has chosen to focus on the formal elements of the picture such as shape, form and line, resulting in this largely abstract picture.

This oil on canvas  is presented in a very well suited gilt frame. The painting has some light craquelure to the areas of impasto but the paint layer is very stable as shown in the close photos. It is in very good vintage condition overall.

Size: 82 x 71cm (including frame)
