About the Item
HELENE
Size: 55.5 x 38.5 cm (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A brilliant modernist-style figurative painting of a nude, executed in oil and dated 1961.
The composition captures a standing nude within a minimalist interior setting. Placed against lightly-coloured walls, the absence of extraneous details draws attention to the portrayal of the subject.
The standing figure, bathed in muted and naturalistic tones, emanates a quiet elegance. The colour palette, delicately chosen, imparts a softness to the painting, creating an atmosphere of subtle intimacy.
The artist employs expressive and distinct brushstrokes with confidence, skillfully rendering the three-dimensional qualities of the standing nude. The use of varying shades within each brushstroke highlights the contours of her form, allowing the viewer to appreciate the subtle interplay of light and shadow. Furthermore, the artist’s deliberate omission of her facial features directs our focus to her graceful form.
This oil on canvas has been laid onto board, is housed in a complementary frame with a hessian lined outer border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing to its inner window.
