Item Details

A striking 20th-century French portrait, painted in an expressive and highly tactile manner. The sitter is shown in close-up against a loosely worked grey ground, with the face built up through vigorous, visible brushstrokes and areas of heavy impasto. The slightly distorted features and direct, introspective expression give the portrait a strong psychological presence, while the restrained palette of earthy flesh tones, grey and deep black creates a particularly atmospheric effect in an expressive, loose, impasto-driven manner. The handling of the paint is characteristic of the more expressive strand of the École de Paris. Presented in an attractive distressed painted frame. Style: French Expressionism Date: Circa 1968 Medium: Oil on canvas Subject: Portrait of a man Origin: France
Dimensions: 59cm (H) x 51cm (W) x 6cm (D)
