Description
Mid-20th Century Abstract Expressionist Female Nude Oil Painting on Canvas
Executed in a manner reminiscent of the New York School - particularly the gestural, fragmented figuration. Rendered in a moody palette, the composition suggests a reclining nude figure dissolved into energetic brushwork. Painted on canvas and presented unframed with raw, exposed edges.
Ideal for interiors that favor a modernist or gallery-inspired aesthetic.
ORIGIN: American
Unsigned
CIRCA: 1950s, the reverse bears a period art supply store stamp, supporting a Mid-20th Century origin
CONDITION: Good vintage condition. Please zoom in on photos and read detailed condition notes below.
DIMENSIONS: 40"wide x 1"deep x 30"high
Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: Visible edge wear and fraying along canvas perimeter. Loosely mounted canvas with exposed tacking margins. Minor drips and surface irregularities (typical of studio works and intentional technique). Soiling and discoloration to the verso as can be seen in photo. No major structural damage observed (no tears or punctures). Presents beautifully as is, however, it could be stretched or float-framed for a more finished presentation.
I am happy to answer any questions you may have prior to purchase or to send more photos if needed.
