Description
A small yet very striking modernist street scene composition, executed in oil onto canvas. The painting depicts a bustling scene in a city with a tram and some figures strolling in the foreground, and a building motif situated in the background of the painting. The artist has highlighted the silhouettes of the tram, building and figures with a thin black outline, and the painting has a sketch-like quality. Furthermore, by leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the artists creative use of negative space accentuates the shapes of the figure and objects, drawing our attention to their distinct forms. The painting is characterised by a beautiful rich palette, as well as expressive and lightly textured brushstrokes that reflect the uplifting energy of the city. This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful wood frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has marks to its linen border as shown. Size: 38 x 33 cm (including frame)
