Expressionist Mid-Century Landscape of Cyclists in Oil on Canvas
This Expressionist Mid-Century Landscape of Cyclists in Oil on Canvas originates from France, Circa 1960. The scene features four cyclists standing beside a white fence separating a trail from the tree line. An energetic cloudy sky occupies the top half of the painting, with a murky tree line in deep muted greens. The cyclists are wearing bright colors, reds, yellow, and pure blues, with the white paint of their bikes and the fence alongside jumping forward in the image. The foreground is textural and dynamic, depicting brush and greenery close to the viewer. This painting has a light and airy execution, pairing well with the speed and movement of the subject matter. An excellent example of the transition in techniques and subject matter in Mid-Century Art and modern scenes of daily life, this landscape will style beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. Fitted in a Custom Gilt-wood Gallery Frame. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
