About the Item
THE ROYAL GUARD
Size: 63 x 29 cm (including frame)
Watercolor & Gouache on Paper
A small yet impactful watercolour and gouache figurative composition of an upright figure of a royal guard, depicted in a side profile view.
The subject is dressed traditionally in a red uniform and a bearskin hat. The uniform’s details are simplified, yet recognisable. The artist has used flat brushstrokes, and has uniquely outlined the figure’s silhouette in thin blue outlines.
Apart from the turquoise platform that the figure has been standing on, the background of the painting has been intentionally left out, enhancing our focus on the subject.
This watercolour and gouache on paper has been well framed in a light grey wood frame with cream mount, and is housed behind glass. Please note there is some reflection present on the photos due to the glass. There is some age toning to the paper and the mount, and there are two tiny pinholes to the left of the figure, probably from previous mounting. The corners of the frame have widened slightly but the frame is stable, and there is some minor scuffing to the frame.
Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible. Should you need more photos or wish to ask us more questions regarding an item's condition, feel free to contact us, we are always happy to help.

San Francisco Abstract Expression A free-spirited wave of creative energy swept through the San Francisco art community after World War II. Challenging accepted modes of painting, Abstract Expressionists produced highly experimental works that jolted the public out of its postwar complacency. Abstract Expressionism resulted from a broad collective impulse rather than the inspiration of a small band of New York artists. Documenting the interchanges between the East and West Coasts, she cites areas of mutual influence and shows the impact of San Francisco on the New York School, including artists such as Mark Rothko and Ad Reinhardt. San Francisco's Beat poets...Category
