About the Item

MOUNTAIN MONASTERY Size: 74 x 52.5 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas A large and captivating mid-century modernist geometric abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas. The composition features three nuns dressed in black and with triangular orange faces, walking down from an abstracted mountainous landscape. Their simplified geometric forms give them a strong sense of movement, guiding the viewer’s eye toward the background, which consists of rolling green hills, a blue sky, and a large, stark white and black architectural structure on the right. Containing elements of geometric abstraction and cubism, the painting emphasises bold, angular forms and a structured composition. The artist has skilfully used a simplified, almost stained-glass-like approach to render the scene, with thick black outlines segmenting each shape. The brushwork appears smooth and controlled, lending the painting a polished and deliberate aesthetic. The combination of geometric stylisation and minimal detail creates a contemplative yet dynamic composition that is visually engaging. This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age.
