Description
**First Time At Auction**
Kalpana (Indian, Active 20th Century). Oil on canvas board, 1965. Signed and dated at lower right. A vibrant painting depicting a fishing scene with five abstract figures working together along the shore, with a broad expanse of ocean waters below a moody sky by Kalpana of Madras, India. All is delineated in an avant-garde manner - the figures, sandy shore, rolling waves, and billowing clouds brought to life via expressive loose brushstrokes, areas of impasto, as well as sweeping black gestural contours defining the figures - all suggesting the artist's interest in Post-Impressionism and Abstract Expressionism. A striking mid-century modern abstract figural painting mounted in a custom bold yellow wooden frame. Size (sight view): 14.75" L x 21.875" W (37.5 cm x 55.6 cm) Size (frame): 16.625" L x 23.875" W (42.2 cm x 60.6 cm)
Provenance: private Goldstein collection, Denver, Colorado, USA. The Goldstein's have amassed their collection over the past six decades. This painting was purchased directly from the artist in 1965 when Dr. Goldstein was doing research in Madras, India.
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
