About the Item

MEMORY OF A LANDSCAPE Size: 41 x 48 cm (including frame) Oil on board A bold and abstract mid-century composition, painted in oil onto board. This painting is composed of large, solid blocks of colour and thick, expressive brushstrokes. While not realistic, it suggests a natural scene, perhaps a sunset or sunrise over hills or a valley. The upper half of the canvas is dominated by a clear, bright blue that could represent the sky. There is a large red circle positioned in the top right quadrant – this striking element resembles the sun or moon, radiating a powerful visual presence, anchoring the composition. Below the red circle is a sweeping shape in green, possibly representing a grassy hill or field, surrounded by brown, beige, and ochre, evoking earth or terrain. There are small red marks scattered to the green and brown area, which add interest and detail and encourage you to look deeper at the painting, drawing you in. Despite its boldness, the horizontal layering and balanced composition give a sense of calm and order. This is the kind of painting that invites multiple interpretations—sunset over a landscape, a memory, or even an abstract metaphor for time and place. This oil on board is presented in a simple wood frame that suits it well. 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.
