Mid-Century Modern Abstract Cityscape Oil Painting on Canvas

This is a framed oil painting on canvas, depicting a stylized cityscape with vibrant, abstract forms and a strong sense of reflection. The painting features numerous skyscrapers rendered in bold, geometric shapes and an array of colors, including various shades of green, blue, red, orange, and yellow-gold. The sky above is characterized by dramatic, moody clouds in grays, whites, and touches of red-orange, suggesting either a dramatic sunset or an impending storm. The lower half of the painting vividly portrays the reflection of the city on what appears to be a body of water, mirroring the colors and vertical lines of the buildings above, with horizontal strokes suggesting rippling water. The brushwork is moderately textured, particularly noticeable in the sky and the surfaces of the buildings, indicating a palette knife or thick application of paint. The overall aesthetic points to a Mid-Century Modern style, likely dating from the mid-20th century (1950s-1970s). The visible signature 'Gage' (or similar script) is located in the bottom right corner of the painting. The artwork is housed within a multi-layered frame; an inner black frame directly borders the canvas, which is then surrounded by a wider, textured outer frame that appears to be made of wood with a distressed or rustic finish, possibly painted gray or silver-toned. No significant condition issues like tears or punctures are immediately visible, though some minor surface wear or dust might be present on the frame. The painting exhibits good craftsmanship in its composition and color balance, capturing a dynamic urban scene with an abstracted, expressive approach.
