About the Item

Júlio Resende (1917–2011) Ink on Paper, Signed and Dated 1981 Dimensions: approx. 64 × 50 cm (25.2 × 19.7 in) Portugal, 1981 A powerful and emotionally charged work by celebrated Portuguese artist Júlio Resende, this ink on paper composition exemplifies the artist’s deep exploration of the human figure through expressive gesture and fluid form. Executed in 1981 and rendered in tinta-da-china (India ink), the piece reflects Resende’s mastery of drawing and his ability to extract profound emotional resonance from monochrome media. The composition presents a solitary figure captured in a state of psychological and physical tension. Through swift, confident brushstrokes, Resende achieves a remarkable sense of volume and inner intensity. The layering of dark ink washes and controlled bleeding reveals the artist’s technical skill, while the rawness of line and contour contributes to a striking sense of immediacy and vulnerability. Signed and dated lower left, this drawing was created at a time when Resende had already established himself as a central figure in Portuguese modern art. Known for his expressionist and poetic style, Resende’s oeuvre spans painting, drawing, ceramics, and public art, and includes numerous accolades and public commissions throughout Portugal and abroad.
