About the Item

An evocative and atmospheric work from 1972, this signed original painting captures the poetry of solitude and transition along a quiet shoreline. A solitary figure—draped in white and veiled, a basket resting in her hands—stands between land and water, contemplation suspended between the familiar and the unknown. Behind her, a cluster of humble village homes and the faint trace of power lines hint at modernity; before her, an open expanse of sea and sky suggests boundless possibility. Rendered in a restrained yet expressive palette of whites, blues, teals, and navy, the composition unfolds in rich textural layers. Thick impasto in the sky conveys motion and atmosphere, while softer strokes in the land and reflective brushwork in the water create a luminous, almost cinematic quality. Earthy greens and muted browns ground the composition, their organic tones balancing the emotional depth of the scene. The spectrum of blue—from powder and cerulean to deep midnight—imbues the painting with both tranquility and tension. The frame enhances the painting’s presence: a finely crafted wood surround with metallic trim and a dentil-patterned edge. A recessed black inner space and a silver graphite matte add dimensionality and contrast, harmonizing with the cool tonal range of the work. Together, the framing and the painting achieve a museum-like presentation that underscores its sophistication and period authenticity. This piece resonates deeply with collectors of expressive modern landscapes and introspective figural works. Its quiet symbolism—between home and horizon, security and freedom—places it in dialogue with the emotional sensibilities of early 20th-century Expressionism, recalling the reflective intensity of artists such as Edvard Munch and Käthe Kollwitz. Condition is very good. The painting surface shows no notable wear; the frame displays only minor corner repairs visible upon close inspection.
