Description from the seller
On the edge of a polo field, four elegant women, seen from the back or in profile, with 1930s wavy hair and wearing boaters, in light silk, backless dresses, sit in white rattan armchairs and watch the match. On the green field, two riders in striped jerseys — one red and white, the other blue and white — gallop with their mallets raised; behind, palm trees rise and the snowy sierras under a blue sky. Semiotically, the painting captures the aristocratic leisure of the Californian desert: the chic of the spectators, the sporty elegance of the players, the grandiose setting. The palette of whites, pastels, and greens, under bright light, forms a sunny and refined scene. Clean workmanship, sober brushstrokes, the spirit of Art Deco illustration.
