The Nuns

SOLD.

A lovely mid-century oil painting featuring a group of nuns walking through an alleyway between buildings, painted in 1955.

Leaning towards abstraction, the artist has flattened and simplified the forms, reducing them down to planes of contrasting colour. Clearly working with a modernist ethos in mind, he has intentionally chosen not to focus on realistic details, and has played with shape, line, colour and form to create a sense of depth and space.

This oil on board is housed in its original mid century wood frame with visible grain and an inner fabric lined window. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

Size: 50.5 x 43cm (including frame)
