Description
Beautiful colourful nude lovers 899 Acrylic on Stretched Canvas 60cm x 80cm x 1.5cm (23.5 inches x 31.5 inches x 0.5 inches)
A very colourful and decorative painting which was inspired by William Morris and the need to add move interest and movement to the background.
The figured is painted in large single bold strokes with vibrant colours more in the Fauves (French for the wild beasts), style. Emphasized painterly qualities and strong colour over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism.
The nude caring figures are in an embrace of love. The strong contract of shadows is represented not by skin tone but contracted with pure almost primary colours mixed on the canvas at speed which retained it's vibrant fresh look of colours.
The background cuts into and diffuses the edges of the figure's form, giving a lost and found edge, a trick John Singer Sergeant used a lot.
