Mid Century Modern Figurative Landscape Oil Painting - Evening Reflections

1960s

About the Item

EVENING REFLECTIONS Oil on board Size: 46 x 56 cm (including frame) A mid-century modernist composition that captures a serene moment of contemplation set in a tranquil landscape setting, executed in oil onto board. The painting depicts four robed figures gathered near a large tree—one seated and the others standing in reflective postures. Their robes, in striking hues of red, orange, and blue, create a focal point, emphasising their presence and interaction. The background reveals an open countryside bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun, with rolling, lush hills adding depth and atmosphere. Embracing modernist expressionism, the work features simplified forms and a focus on emotional resonance rather than realism. The semi-abstracted figures are rendered with minimal detail, enhancing their meditative quality. The composition is carefully balanced, with the prominent tree on the left counterweighting the figures on the right, leading the viewer’s eye along the pathway into the distance. The brushstrokes are expressive yet fluid, lending the piece a dynamic yet harmonious quality. The thoughtfully curated colour palette blends warm and cool tones, contributing to the painting’s contemplative and evocative atmosphere. This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffing presents at its edges and corner, and the bottom left corner has a small loss as shown.
