About the Item

A striking oil on canvas still life by a contemporary 20th-century artist, possibly signed "Train" and dated London '71 on the verso. This minimalist composition presents a galvanized metal pail filled with budding pussy willow branches, rendered in refined neutral tones with meticulous attention to texture and light. The composition is framed within a bold geometric field—an off-white square enclosing a gray circle—which gives the piece a visual rhythm between realism and abstraction. Executed with great technical finesse, this work evokes elements of Photorealism, Post-Minimalism, and contemporary still life painting. The limited palette, precise draftsmanship, and soft atmospheric tones suggest a conceptual alignment with artists like William Bailey, Robert Bechtle, or Charles Sheeler. Dimensions (canvas): 50 in. x 50 in. (127 cm x 127 cm) Unframed Condition: Good/Fair overall; minor stretcher marks and scattered small surface spots and a scratch visible under close inspection. Original canvas, unlined. Slightly grubby around the edges of the canvas. Would benefit from a light professional cleaning. Provenance: From the Estate of Alexander Dobkin, New York. Dobkin (1908–1975), a notable painter associated with the WPA and social realism movements, was a key figure in mid-20th-century American art circles. His estate has yielded numerous significant 20th-century works, underscoring the quality and credibility of this piece.
