Description from the seller
Title:
Pedro Freitas (1953-2016) - "Casarios" & "O Luar na Cidade" - Mixed Media - Set of 2
Description:
Artist: Pedro Freitas (Lisbon, Portugal, 1953-2016)
Title of Work 1: "Casarios" (Signed, titled and dated by the artist)
Title of Work 2: "O Luar na Cidade" (Signed, titled and dated by the artist)
Subject: Lisbon Urban Landscapes & Cityscapes (Diptych)
Medium: Mixed media / Oil pastel on paper
Dimensions (each): 78 x 58 cm (including frames)
Condition: Very good vintage condition. Elegantly framed under glass with wooden frames.
English Description:
A beautiful and highly collectible set of two original abstract paintings by the renowned Portuguese visual artist Pedro Freitas (1953-2016), son of the celebrated sculptor Silva Freitas.
Each artwork is individually hand-signed, titled, and specified as "Papel" (paper) by the artist on the lower margin. The first piece represents Lisbon's historic old quarter, "Casarios", while the second piece is a poetic urban nocturnal view titled "O Luar na Cidade" (Moonlight in the City).
These pieces masterfully combine a dense constructivist architectural layout with gestural abstraction. The artist uses a sophisticated palette of earth tones, terracottas, and deep structural lines to depict the unique essence and tightly packed house facades of Lisbon.
Freitas, who studied at the Superior School of Fine Arts in Lisbon, is well known for his textured urban skylines. His artworks belong to numerous private and public collections worldwide. This matching pair offers immense decorative presence and authentic Portuguese art value.
The artworks will be safely packed and shipped with a tracking number.
