About the Item

FRIDAY EVENING Size: 33 x 24 cm Oil on canvas A striking figurative abstract composition, titled ‘Friday Evening’ and dated 2013 on reverse. Bold outlines and rich colours intertwine to create this captivating and expressive composition. Although abstract in nature and not rendered in a realistic manner, a pair of eyes are red lips are evident in this painting, and we can discern a portrait of a human subject. The artist has employed geometric shapes and lines to convey the essence of the subject’s character and emotions. Bold outlines delineate the contours of the figure, giving it a strong presence. Rich colours including shades of orange, blue and red dominate the artwork, reflecting the artist’s intention to evoke a sense of energy. The brushstrokes have been applied with confidence, adding depth and dimension to the work. This oil on canvas comes unframed, and can be hung as it is. The painting is 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.

Lunch at Chez Louis
By Roland Dubuc
Located in London, GB
'Lunch at Chez Louis', oil on canvas, by Roland Dubuc (circa 1970s). The outdoor terrace at restaurants and cafés in France goes back centuries as they have always been a gathering place for intellectuals to meet and debate philosophical issues; for the Avant Garde set to display their works; for artists to compare and exchange ideas and for writers to drown their sorrows over their artistic anguish or melancholy. Even the freedom fighters of the French Revolution and later the French Resistance would meet in cafés to plot their course. Regular people of course also enjoy these venues. A very delightful feature of these French institutions is that there is always room for quiet book readers, romantic couples, business meetings and lively groups of friends sharing a bottle of wine. The artist Dubuc captures a slice of this lovely aspect of French culture in this smile-inducing depiction painted in vivid oils. With a background of greenery, the patrons enjoy the outdoors protected from the intense sun by the table's parasols. Ah, the life. The artwork is in good vintage condition, is framed and signed by the artist in the lower left hand corner. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying this listing. Upon request a video may be provided. About the Artist: Roland DuBuc (1924-1998), French artist, the sixth of 13 children and son of a construction worker. The very precariousness of the family's financial situation forced him to go to work at the age of 14. In extreme poverty, he moved to Rouen where he was lodged by the Salvation Army. During that time he struck up friendships with several artists who gave him advice and taught him techniques of drawing. He moved to other cities later where he met painters including, among others, Fred Pailhès...
