Rich shades of crimson, burgundy, rust and warm ochre dominate the composition, accented by touches of green and pink. The relaxed pose, simplified forms and gestural handling give the work a distinctly Mid-Century Modern and Expressionist character.

Presented in a wood frame that has been hand painted with red decorative details to complement the palette of the artwork, creating a particularly cohesive presentation.

A beautiful example of mid-century figurative painting with strong decorative presence, equally suited to Modernist, Mid-Century Modern, Expressionist and collected interiors.

Artist unidentified. Good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear, including some visible surface wear along the left side of the painting.
