About the Item
Dimensions with frame: 44,8 x 25,7 x 1,8cm.
Signed "Ben" in the lower right corner.
Framed under glass.
This striking modernist study depicts a standing female nude seen from the back, rendered with bold, gestural lines and a confident, expressive hand. The composition is both minimal and dynamic: the figure’s elongated form is outlined with fluid contours and accented by loose, painterly highlights that suggest volume rather than define it.
The head is crowned with an explosion of vivid, abstract color: reds, yellows, and blues, contrasting with the subdued tones of the body and introducing an element of emotional intensity and symbolic ambiguity. This interplay between restraint and spontaneity reflects early to mid-20th-century modernist experimentation, where the human figure becomes a vehicle for expression rather than strict realism.
Executed on paper and presented in a refined mat, the work balances immediacy and elegance. It would appeal to collectors of figurative modernism and works on paper, as well as those seeking a distinctive and expressive statement piece.
