About the Item

Karel Appel is internationally recognized and collected for this subject matter in particular. Preferable to have the faces, this piece has rich color and presence. Good value and beautifully framed. He was a part of the important CoBRa movement in the 1950's and then he went on to be recognized for doing works that have a childlike immediacy. This composition is clean has some gravitas due to the darker background color.
