About the Item

Naish Untitled Abstract c.1940 26 x 21 cm Signed 'Naish' within the painting Little is known about the artist Naish, though the fact that Halliwell collected this painting suggests that he thought highly of his student. This untitled abstract composition features a dynamic interplay of bold, overlapping shapes in red, blue, yellow, green, and purple. Arcing lines and curved forms suggest musical or architectural motifs, creating a harmonious balance between colour and movement on a neutral background and leaving a strong lasting impression.
