Lot 98:
Cityscape | Framed Expressionist Oil Painting
Description
C-21642
Artist: Alonso (signature at lower left)
Date: Early to Mid 20th Century
Medium: Oil on canvas
Style/Movement: Abstract Expressionist / Impressionistic Landscape
Additional Details:
Framed original oil on canvas landscape signed “Alonso” at the lower left. The composition depicts an expansive plowed field beneath a dramatic cloud-filled sky with a cluster of distant buildings along the horizon. Executed with heavy palette knife application and pronounced impasto, the painting emphasizes texture as much as form, creating a richly layered surface that captures the rugged character of the landscape. A restrained palette of earthy browns, slate blues, and muted grays enhances the atmospheric quality while the energetic knife work lends the scene a distinctly modern, expressive character.
Canvas exhibits scattered craquelure, including several areas of stable paint cracking and minor paint loss as photographed. Thick impasto surface remains well adhered overall with expected age-related surface wear. Frame displays light scratches, finish wear, and minor handling marks consistent with age. Wired and ready for display.
29.75” W x 18.25” H
