Description from the seller

Luis Javier Ochoa – Central Park, Manhattan – 1997

Oil on canvas – 93 × 47 cm – Signed and with handwritten inscriptions on the back

Interesting painting attributed to the Colombian artist Luis Javier Ochoa, depicting a suggestive interpretation of Central Park, in Manhattan, New York.

The work, catalogued as oil on canvas, presents a landscape composition rich in figurative elements, characterized by trees, sinuous paths, vegetation, a central fountain and numerous bright points that animate the scene.

The painting is distinguished by the use of intense and contrasting colors, with a predominance of green, yellow, orange and brown tones. The brushstrokes are free, energetic and tactile, giving the surface a particular expressive vitality and color depth.

The pictorial language appears to be linked to an expressive sensibility, with a personal and interpretative representation of the urban and natural landscape.

Signatures, inscriptions and dating

One of the aspects of particular interest of the work is the presence of handwritten signatures and inscriptions, both on the front and on the back of the canvas.

On the front, in the lower right corner, there is the signature «Luis Javier».

On the back of the canvas appear additional handwritten inscriptions in Spanish, including:

«Luis Javier Ochoa», the artist's full name.

«Derechos de autor reservados e intransferibles», translated as «Copyright reserved and non-transferable».

«Pintado en Manhattan», meaning «Painted in Manhattan».

«Julio – 1997», indicating the month and year of creation.

There are also other attributions attributed to the author.

These annotations constitute documentary elements of interest regarding the declared authorship of the work, the place of execution and its dating.

The reference to Manhattan, shown directly on the back of the canvas, also helps geographically contextualize the subject depicted.
