Description from the seller
Catriel Efrony (born in 1923) – Abstract composition – Oil on canvas
⸻
Description
Important oil painting on canvas signed Catriel Efrony (born in 1923), an artist active in the second half of the 20th century, connected to the artistic scene linked to Jewish culture and the Middle Eastern/Israeli context.
The work presents an abstract composition of great expressive force, built through a layering of color planes and gestural marks. The palette, dominated by blues, turquoise and white, is brightened by warm accents – orange, yellow and red – suggesting a possible urban or nocturnal reading, almost a vibrant city immersed in light.
The painting alternates fluid zones and transparencies with more material and structured passages, creating a dynamic balance between abstraction and figurative suggestion. The whole recalls the studies of lyrical abstraction and postwar European expressionism.
The work is signed:
• in the bottom left: C. Efrony
• in the bottom right: signature in Hebrew characters
The signature in Hebrew can be read as:
אפרוני (Efrony)
⸻
Artist note
