About the Item

This original lithograph by Bram van Velde, published by Arte, Paris, is a striking example of the artist’s intensely expressive abstract style. Printed on a large sheet with full margins and plate-signed Bram van Velde, the work exemplifies the painter’s mastery of bold form and emotional tension. Van Velde, associated loosely with the École de Paris and often aligned with European Abstract Expressionism, is celebrated for his raw, gestural mark-making and a color language that conveys psychological depth. His compositions frequently explore a delicate balance between structure and collapse, presence and void. In this untitled lithograph, van Velde juxtaposes sweeping black forms with vivid red fields and softer passages of grey, creating a dynamic interplay of weight, movement, and spatial ambiguity. The contrast between the dense, almost calligraphic black strokes and the radiant red ground heightens the sense of internal conflict that characterizes much of his work. The resulting image feels at once spontaneous and meticulously resolved—a visual negotiation between chaos and order. Van Velde’s prints are highly regarded for their immediacy, their painterly qualities, and the emotional resonance they carry. This large-format example stands as a powerful representation of his artistic language, making it a compelling piece for collectors of postwar European abstraction.

Nelson Mandela, Artist's Motivation, Signed Limited Edition Lithograph Many people are unaware that Nelson Mandela turned his hand to art in his 80's as a way of leaving a legacy for his family. He spent time with an art tutor and learnt to draw. In 2002, when creating the The Motivation print, he told Anna and Laura from Belgravia Gallery of his desire to become a full time artist when he retired. This artwork is a handwritten Artist’s Motivation by Nelson Mandela and reads: “Today when I look at Robben Island I see it as a celebration of the struggle and a symbol of the finest qualities of the human spirit, rather than as a monument to the brutal tyranny and oppression of apartheid. Robben Island is a place where courage endured in the face of endless hardship, a place where people kept on believing when it seemed their dreams were hopeless and a place where wisdom and determination overcame fear and human frailty. It is true that Robben Island was once a place of darkness, but out of that darkness has come a wonderful brightness, a light so powerful that it could not be hidden behind prison walls, held back by prison bars...
