Abstract Expressionist painting in the CoBrA style, oil on panel, mid-20th century

This abstract expressionist composition is executed in oil or mixed media on a rigid panel. The work is distinguished by a textural and gestural surface, characterized by a dense, layered impasto consistent with the CoBrA movement or the Informel art of the mid-20th century. The composition is structured around deconstructed forms that suggest a face or an anthropomorphic figure. The color palette combines shades of sage green and sea foam with accents of salmon pink, black, and an intense vertical strip of crimson red. A white circular element dominates the upper portion, evoking an eye or a central focal point. The painting technique alternates between flat areas of color and incised and scratched marks that expose the underlying pigments. There are no visible signatures, dates, or identifying marks on the painting’s surface. The work is presented unframed.
