Description
A bold and striking mid-century still life composition, executed in oil onto canvas. The painting presents two mackerel laid on a plate, accented with a lemon wedge and a backdrop of simplified, abstracted elements, and a stark blue tabletop. The fish are rendered in vibrant blues and greys, with expressive yellow eyes that draw immediate attention. There is a strong emphasis on simplified forms and expressive brushwork. The palette is restrained but impactful, dominated by cool tonesdeep navy, cobalt blue, tealoffset by earthy beige and a pop of lemon yellow. Thick, confident brushstrokes and impasto application give the surface a rich texture, adding dimensionality and dynamism to the otherwise static subject. This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited wood frame with an inner green and gilt border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Size: 51.5 x 68.5 cm (including frame)
