About the Item

SUNLIT FACADES Size: 32 x 42 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas A charming mid-century modernist painting that captures a quiet village street in Spain, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1958. The composition is anchored by whitewashed buildings with yellow and terracotta roofs, stacked geometrically against a bright sky. The perspective flattens the scene slightly, lending a graphic, almost cubist sensibility. Rendered in oil, the artist has used confident, blocky brushstrokes to define shadows and forms. Angular planes and muted earth tones – sage green, charcoal grey, and hints of warm brown - contrast with brilliant whites and a crisp blue sky. The painting captures the play of sunlight on architecture, with simplified details like shuttered windows, steep stone steps, and doors suggested rather than articulated. There is a distinct sense of rhythm in the repetition of rooftops and telegraph lines that echo across the canvas. This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary and well made wood frame with an inner linen border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible.
