John Bellany"The Gambler"XX Century
XX Century
About the Item
A compelling example of Bellany’s expressive and emotionally charged visual language, The Gambler captures the existential tension and symbolic complexity characteristic of the artist’s mature work. With bold, gestural lines and a raw, figurative abstraction, Bellany evokes a haunting narrative — a skeletal, distorted figure confronts the viewer, surrounded by playing cards that hint at chance, fate, and mortality.
This artist’s proof is a rare and intimate insight into Bellany’s printmaking process, bearing his pencil signature and the distinct energy of hand-finished elements. The work exemplifies the artist’s enduring fascination with moral struggle and the human condition, themes rooted in his Presbyterian upbringing and deeply personal experiences.
John Bellany is widely regarded as one of the most significant Scottish painters of the 20th century. A Royal Academician and Commander of the Order of the British Empire, his work is held in the collections of the Tate, MoMA New York, and the National Galleries of Scotland.
