About the Item
The most significant example of Cremona’s work to come to market in recent memory, this sweeping 1968 abstraction captures the haunting lyricism that defined his mature work. The composition seems to hover between land, sea, and dreamscape, with a dark, boat-like form emerging from a field of molten ochres and slate blues. Cremona’s thick impasto and layered pigment suggest both geological force and emotional depth, grounding the spiritual energy that runs through his art.
Cremona is regarded as Malta’s foremost postwar modernist, and this painting exemplifies the poetic abstraction that characterized his late 1960s period when he shocked the public with his exhibition at the National Museum of Malta. Here, matter and atmosphere blend into a vision that feels at once physical and transcendental. The surface shimmers with motion and memory, evoking the sea, the land, and the timeless rhythm between them.
This work is mixed media on canvas and is signed and dated in the lower right and verso. It is housed in a beautiful frame with a linen liner, ready to hang.
