About the Item

GEOMETRIC NEIGHBOURHOOD Size: 40 x 72.5 cm (including frame) Oil on Canvas A playful and brilliantly executed mid-century composition of a neighbourhood, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1959. Containing elements of geometric abstraction, the scene is defined by tall houses that have been skilfully reduced to geometric blocks in contrasting colours, with a splash of fun patterned dots. Rich earthy tones dominate the palette – deep turquoise and emerald greens are punctuated by lighter greens, with hints of black, brown, and white and yellow demonstrating depth to the painting. The artist’s use of these colours creates a fun and vibrant atmosphere. Despite the simplified forms, the neighbourhood’s lively energy is palpable, inviting viewers to explore the interplay between the shapes, colours, and expressive brushwork. This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited linen lined frame with an inner gilt window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a very minor scuffs. 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.
