About the Item

The abstract life painting of a standing or kneeling figure by John Kaine 1960's Acrylic was executed on board framed with pine wood. John Kaine presents us with a female nude in a position of action or inaction, descending or ascending. The figure is painted in mostly muted colours of brown, umbra, mocha and toffee. There is an outline of mostly salmon pink around the silhouette of the body. Behind the feet of the figure and above the figure there seems to be a void of light. To the left of her frame she seems to be clutching or holding a bar in slate grey. The strength of the painting is its ambiguity of the nudes simple position and the questions of the viewer. The painter John Kaine studied fine art in the late 1950s at the Royal College of Art and won the Rome and Abbey Scholarship. Later he taught at Maidstone school of Art. Two paintings available, also see; LU1001525700982 listed by The moderns see the last image.

Composition with a Figure by Teddy Millington Drake, circa 1963
By Teddy Millington-Drake
Located in London, GB
Oil on canvas, Villa Albrizzi, Veneto, 1963 Teddy Millington-Drake (1932-1994) was a nomad, linguist, bon viveur, aesthete and master gardener, but above all an artist. Discharged from service and in part inspired by his sister's anecdotes of her travels abroad, Millington-Drake embarked on a painting tour that took him to Lebanon, Iran, Iraq and Syria. He then rented a house, the Villa Albrizzi at Este, Veneto in Italy, and became a more frequent painter, particularly now of abstract murals. He befriended Freya Stark, a writer and traveler who lived nearby, and in Venice he became friends with Daisy Fellowes, Peggy Guggenheim, Barbara Hutton and Elsa Maxwell. In Este, he painted continually and more boldly, turning his hand to abstract murals. He later transformed a neglected Tuscan farmhouse in the village of Poggio which was co-decorated by his friend the designer John Stefanidis. There were vine-hung terraces and a skillfully landscaped garden. A swimming-POOL was built on a shelf cut into the Hillside, so that you felt yourself gliding towards the horizon, suspended in space as you swam. There Millington-Drake worked passionately at all forms of painting. There are haunting large abstracts inspired by Jung, hard-edged acrylic wave paintings and some intriguing semi-calligraphic works on paper based on phrases taken from the works of poets such as Cavafy, Mandelstam and Elizabeth Bishop...
