This evocative work features two seated figures, rendered in a bold, textured palette of blues, purples, yellows, and earth tones against a dark, moody background. The thick, impasto brushstrokes and raw, gestural lines highlight Stein’s ability to merge abstraction with figurative form, evoking both intimacy and tension.

This piece is unsigned and unframed, yet it is part of a collection of 20 paintings acquired together, all attributed to the same artist. The frames from other works in the collection bear labels indicating they originated in New York, where Stein lived and worked. While little is documented about Stein’s career, her work reflects a modernist, mid-century sensibility with influences of European expressionism.
