Mid-Century Modern Abstract Oil Painting with Geometrical Motif
This item is an original abstract oil painting on canvas, displayed in a horizontal orientation. The composition is divided into two primary vertical sections by a central ladder-like stripe, anchored at the midpoint by a gold-colored rectangular heraldic or geometric emblem involving fine dotting. The color palette is composed of atmospheric washes of cerulean blue, burnt sienna, and bright cadmium red, applied with a combination of dripped vertical lines and dry-brush techniques. A decorative border of white dashed lines frames the internal composition. The work is signed in the lower right corner, appearing to read 'G. Mar...' or similar, indicating a mid-20th-century origins, likely between 1960 and 1980. The painting is housed in a contemporary double-frame consisting of an inner cream-colored linen or painted mat and an outer metallic silver-toned wood frame with gold accents on the inner and outer leading edges. The condition appears stable with minor surface dust and typical aging of the pigments. The frame shows some light scuffing and minor separation at the mitered corners. The overall craftsmanship suggests a professional studio artist familiar with mid-century expressionism and graphic design elements.
