About the Item

A captivating Mid-Century Modern abstract cityscape, this oil on canvas by French artist Le Boreux (20th Century) showcases a dynamic fusion of brutalist architecture and pointillist technique. The composition bursts with color and energy, featuring angular skyscrapers that stretch dramatically toward a green-tinged skyline. Each building is rendered with meticulous pointillist brushwork, lending the piece a delicate texture and rhythmic vibrancy. Signed "Le Boreux" in the lower right corner, the painting is both visually striking and emotionally evocative—an expressive interpretation of urban life through a modernist lens. It has been newly reframed in a refined distressed white cerusé wood frame, enhancing its sophisticated presentation and complementing its architectural elegance. The last two pictures are for your reference and show the painting before it was reframed. Measurements: With frame: 24.61 in high (62.5 cm) by 20.47 in wide (52 cm) by 1.19 in deep (3 cm). Opening view: 19.50 in high (49.5 cm) by 15.38 in wide (39 cm).
