About the Item

HOUSES WITH RED ROOFS Size: 54 x 49 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas A mid-century painting that presents a semi-abstracted urban scene with houses, executed in oil onto canvas. Angular rooftops in bold terracotta tones dominate the composition, intersecting with planes of pale green, lavender, and cream. A suggestion of a tree in soft green stands alongside the houses, its form simplified into blocky, geometric shapes. The sun, a muted pink disc, hovers subtly in the background, adding a sense of atmosphere. The palette balances warm hues with muted pastels, giving the work both vibrancy and restraint. The brushstrokes are textured and expressive, with areas where the paint has been applied more thickly, creating surface depth and variation. The overall effect is a harmonious interplay of abstraction and representation, where familiar architectural forms are distilled into their essential planes of colour and shape. This oil on canvas is presented in a solid wooden frame with a rich, warm brown finish. The painting shows some areas of paint loss and craquelure across the surface, characteristic of age. However, the paint layer remains stable. The frame is in good 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.
