A mid-century abstract figurative painting that captures a serene and introspective atmosphere, depicting three abstract human forms in a seated arrangement, executed in oil onto board.

The figures, rendered in earthy tones of brown, beige, and muted grey, appear to be engaged in a quiet, contemplative moment. The artist has used a combination of broad, gestural brushstrokes and textured layering, which gives the figures a rugged, almost sculptural presence within the composition.

The background is a juxtaposition of muted green and off-white blocks of colour, suggesting an interior space or an abstracted environment. The deliberate abstraction of the figures, reduced to essential forms and shapes, allows for multiple interpretations, emphasising mood and presence over detailed representation.

The painting’s style reflects the mid-century modernist movement, characterised by a harmonious blend of abstraction and figuration. The artist’s use of subdued, natural colours evokes a soothing, meditative feeling, while the brushwork conveys a sense of spontaneity and raw emotion.

This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited wood frame with an inner gilt and linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. See less
