2013

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.

  • La Contrebasse - Expressionist Musician Portrait Oil by Gen Paul
    By Gen Paul
    Located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire
    Signed expressionist oil on canvas portrait by French painter and engraver Gen Paul. This charming work depicts a seated musician wearing a green suit with a black bow tie playing the double bass.
