Hand signed, titled, and dated 1993 (NYC) on the verso. A richly layered abstract composition alive with gesture, color, and symbolic mark-making. Bold strokes of ochre, blue, crimson, and deep green intersect with architectural forms and calligraphic lines, creating a vivid sense of movement and emotional tension. Textural passages of impasto further enhance the painting’s depth and energy, reflecting Bakradze’s distinctive fusion of abstraction and narrative suggestion. A compelling and highly collectible work, it represents a strong example of early 1990s post-Soviet abstract painting. From a private collection. Dimensions: 39"h x 44.75"w x 2"d (framed). In good vintage condition.
