The Boy

SOLD.

An endearing and outstandingly executed portrait, rendered in oil in 1968.

Painted in an expressionist style, the artwork depicts a well-dressed young boy wearing a beret, in a seated position with his gaze facing the viewer. His silhouette has been uniquely painted with a mix of dark bold outlines as well as white strokes.

The artist shows off his painterly talents, displaying both the use of fine brushwork as well as the use of a palette knife.

Using a muted earthy colours including green, pink and yellow, he has skillfully applied layers of contrasting shades with a palette knife in swift manner to reveal depth, interest and a stunning raw and textural feel.

This oil on board is in very good vintage condition. It housed in its original mid century wood frame that pairs very well with the painting. The frame has some areas of marks and scuffs commensurate with its age.

Size: 85 x 49.5 cm (including frame)
