About the Item
"Reflection In Sun Ray Motley" from Sax Berlin forms part of his latest collection of works on the Harlequin theme. Although the character dates back to 11th Century passion plays this Harlequin invokes the character we now know well since it's first 16th Century appearance by Tristano Martinelli in Paris in 1584.
In this work the theme of the piece is refection, the portrait being a projection of the reflection. His face almost subsumed by the brilliant colours of his stage persona. This is a thought provoking piece as well as being a colourful work and is another example of Berlin's mastery of his theme. As usual the artist has used original pigments that he has prepared in his studio.
The artist grinds and mixes his own pigments making his own paints which have a wonderful textural finish

Sax Berlin
We are privileged to sell works on behalf of Sax Berlin. Sax, arguably the finest exponent of 21st Century Classicism, has devoted his life to absorbing the culture of art and architecture in Europe, Asia & North America. He is undoubtedly a genius of our times and one of the great secrets of modern art. When one reviews his oeuvre, 10 distinct & separate styles emerge, displaying Berlin’s mastery of his subject. In fact only Picasso has achieved this height of genius. His students and collectors call him “The Master”. Berlin is a unique artist, using techniques mastered during his studies; ranging from antiquity through the medieval and Renaissance to the present; he creates the visual outcomes he wants and that delight collectors. The paintings Berlin has created in his New York, Greek and Cornish studios are of museum quality and are rarely seen in Art Sales offering a combination of beautiful artworks and investment opportunity. Harvard University refer to him as a Master Artist. The President of the Asia Society on Park Avenue, NYC wrote to Berlin that “your work is beautiful” and Bernard Faure, Professor of Asia Studies at Columbia University wrote “your icons really do have a life of their own”. Sax Berlin is a modern Master Painter in the truest sense of the term and follows in the footsteps of the Great Masters of the past.
