Abstract Oil Painting Titled "Building Site" by Artist Peggy Trotman

About the Item

"Building Site" by Peggy Trotman, vibrantly captures the bustling activity of a dock under construction. Painted in a warm yet moody palette, the work's abstract composition conveys the dynamic interplay of structure and chaos inherent in urban development. Framed in simple white painted wood, this oil on canvas reflects Trotman's autodidactic mastery and her recognition by prestigious art academies. Born in 1916 in Wiltshire, England, Trotman was a prolific self-taught artist who exhibited with the Royal Academy, the Royal West of England Academy, and the SEA. Her work is held in the permanent collections of the RWA, as well as the University of Oxford and the University of Bristol. England, circa 1950 Dimensions: 25.5W x 1.5D x 29.5H
