AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

N. Koch — Abstract Floral Composition

Gouache on paper. France. Dating: Around 1950–1960. Period: 1950s.
Dimensions (unframed): 17 cm high × 23 cm wide.
Signed N. Koch at the bottom left.

A large clear floral shape opens on a background of ochres and greens. The dark outlines emphasize the petals and accentuate their movement. A few blue touches and a small pinkish accent enrich this free interpretation of the vegetal motif.

Gouache allows varying the opacity of the light areas and the background. The outlines, sometimes diffuse, maintain a dialogue between the recognizable flower and the abstract form.

N. Koch transforms the floral motif into a free composition, between figuration and organic abstraction. The light petals stand out against a deep background, while the dark outlines give movement to the whole. This 1950s gouache attracts with the strength of its silhouette and with its harmonies of ochres, greens and blues.

Condition: Good overall.

Sold without the frame.
