About the Item

Technical Sheet Title: "Portrait of a Woman on a Colorful Background" Author: M. Domínguez (Spanish School) Date: 1954 Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 61 x 50 cm Style: Expressionist portrait with influence of modernism Compositional and Iconographic Description This "Portrait of a Woman on a Colorful Background" presents a half-length female figure in a frontal and serene pose. The woman's face is illuminated, highlighting her blue eyes that look directly at the viewer, expressing security and depth. Her clothing, in blue and white tones, is vaporous, which contrasts with the colorful and vibrant background, which goes from green to warm tones like red and yellow, creating a halo of luminosity around her figure. The colourful background, in blurred green and red tones, provides dynamism and an atmosphere of enigma. The technique used in the background is loose and textured brushstrokes, contrasting with the more detailed treatment of the face. This combination gives a feeling of modernity and movement, approaching the expressionist style, where color and shape serve to intensify expression. Comparison with Similar Works This portrait is somewhat reminiscent of the style of portraits by mid-20th century modernist artists, who experimented with abstract backgrounds and colour to add character to the figure depicted.
