CUBIST PICNIC
Size: 28 x 25.4 inches (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A striking painting that presents a lively outdoor dining scene interpreted through a playful Cubist lens, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1986.
Fragmented figures and objects – plates, cutlery, food, and bottles -are reassembled into a bold, geometric composition. Faces, limbs, and tableware overlap in dynamic angles, giving the impression of multiple perspectives unfolding simultaneously.
The palette is vibrant and saturated. Sharp contrasts of colour planes create rhythm and movement across the canvas, while the artist uses flat, angular brushstrokes to emphasise form over realism. Details like a patterned dish of food, a bottle of salt, and stylised trees in the background contribute to the sense of narrative within abstraction.
Executed in a flattened, semi-abstract style characteristic of Cubist and post-Cubist traditions, the work balances playful energy with structural harmony.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting has a mark on its right side but this does not affect its overall attractiveness, and the frame has some small scuffs present.
