Landscape with Horses by Johnny Friedlaender, 1959 Signed Etching. Paper size is 21 x 27 inches, with an image size of 12.5 x 18.5 inches. The Etching is from an edition size of 200 and is currently framed. The condition was rated A: Mint. Additional details: This evocative mid-century composition reflects the lyrical abstraction associated with artists such as Johnny Friedlaender, combining delicate tonal fields with expressive linear drawing. The image presents a quiet pastoral scene—suggestive of grazing animals beneath an open horizon—rendered with a poetic restraint that blurs the boundary between abstraction and figuration. The composition is built upon a softly textured ground in muted tones of grey, green, and pale blue, over which fluid, gestural lines define the landscape and its forms. The animals are only loosely articulated, emerging from the surface with an almost dreamlike quality, while the horizon line and subtle markings above introduce a sense of atmosphere and spatial depth. The print demonstrates characteristics consistent with mid-20th century European printmaking, particularly the use of tonal layering and linear intervention often found in etching or aquatint techniques. The balance between openness and structure creates a calm, contemplative image that invites close viewing. Presented in a period frame, the work retains a strong decorative presence while also appealing to collectors of post-war European abstraction and School of Paris aesthetics. A refined and understated piece, ideal for collectors drawn to the work of Friedlaender and related artists, as well as for interiors seeking a subtle, atmospheric composition. Framing available upon request. Shipping Size:30 in. x 24 in. x 5 in.
