Title
James Sherman (American, 1906–1989) Abstract Urban Cityscape Painting
⸻
Description
Original abstract cityscape painting by James Sherman (American, 1906–1989). The composition presents a stylized metropolitan skyline articulated through vertical architectural forms and layered color fields. Broad passages of ochre, amber, charcoal, crimson, and muted pastel tones create depth and rhythmic structure, while softened edges and subtle surface texture lend an atmospheric quality to the scene.
Reflective elements along the lower portion of the composition suggest water or illuminated streets, reinforcing the urban character of the work without literal representation. The painting reflects mid-century American modernist approaches to abstraction, emphasizing structure, color harmony, and spatial balance.
Signed James Sherman at lower right. Presented in a brass-tone metal frame.
