About the Item

A large and impressive Karel Appel of his most desirable subject, abstracted faces. Very difficult to find a work of this size and impact by the artist. Often the faces are not as distinguishable as here, a very expressive work! Also rare to find a great frame on one, this one has a 22 karat wide modernist frame of exceptional quality. A iconic image and internationally known artist.
