Description from the seller
EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE
Fascinating painting from the 20th century, made in oil on canvas, depicting an intense dance scene inspired by flamenco tradition.
The composition is dominated by the elegant figure of a dancer caught from behind as she performs a theatrical and dynamic gesture. The sinuously curved body, the outstretched hand and the movement of the arm suggest the rhythm and passion of the dance, while the deep red dress, enriched by soft folds and wide white sleeves, amplifies the expressive force of the scene.
The artist uses a strong contrast between the dark background and the warm tones of the figure, creating a dramatic and evocative atmosphere. The soft brushstrokes and the light focused on the dancer's body enhance the gestural quality and the elegance of the movement, recalling the painting tradition devoted to Spanish subjects and to dance scenes.
Please note that, given the age of the work, it is in good general condition for its period, but may show slight signs of aging, small imperfections or minor losses, elements that attest to its authenticity and historicity.
The frame should be regarded as a gracious compliment and is not counted as an integral part of the lot. In case of any damage to the frame during transport, it will not be subject to dispute or refund.
The photographs were taken under direct spotlight to highlight every detail.
Our shipments are fast, professional and with perfectly protected packaging: from this derive the related shipping costs.
In accordance with current regulations on artworks, shipments outside Europe (Schengen area) will be more onerous and may cause issues or delays, at the buyer's total expense, unless private agreements.
