Vanta's Zaffre, hand signed oil on canvas 130 by 100 cm from Austria, a contemporary original sold direct from the artist; the smaller counterpart to Sodalite invites close inspection of its thin white lines.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
“Zaffre” (2025)
Oil on canvas
130 x 100 cm
The smaller sibling to “Sodalite,” “Zaffre” works with the same near-black blue but on a more intimate scale. The composition features similar rounded forms and impossibly thin preserved lines, but the reduced dimensions intensify the viewing experience. That deep black blue absorbs light so completely the surface almost disappears, leaving those white incisions to float in darkness.
Represented through S-Gallery and available on Catawiki, this piece demonstrates how scale affects perception of the same essential approach. Where the larger work overwhelms, “Zaffre” invites closer inspection of exactly how those clean edges were achieved. The precision becomes more apparent at this size - you can see just how narrow those preserved lines actually are.
It’s a painting that rewards patience and attention, revealing its true nature only to those who take time to look.
Shipping:
The work is delivered without a frame (professional packaging, rolled in a tube). it can easily be restretched by a professional or on your own, this is also cheaper then the otherwise increased cost of shipping when sending paintings of this size stretched
The measurements indicated are those of the painting stretched and mounted on a frame (The actual
measurements of the canvas are larger to allow it to be mounted on a frame 2-4cm thick.
