Huge Oil on canvas - Art Deco scene - Two elegant men with hats - second half 20th century
HST - 145 x 95 cm
Superb large-format oil on canvas depicting two stylized male figures, wearing white double-breasted suits and large hats, evolving in a geometrical urban setting evoking a modernist skyline.
Work description
The composition features two slender figures with architectural silhouettes, typical of the revisited Art Deco / 1930s aesthetic.
The figures, treated in a palette dominated by whites, bluish grays and deep blacks, are enlivened by touches of bright red (ties and clutch bag), providing a strong graphic contrast.
The light circular background, set in a structuring black frame, reinforces the scenographic effect and gives the whole a very contemporary feel, despite its retro inspiration.
The clean lines and simplified volumes are clearly influenced by early 20th-century fashion design and advertising illustration.
Signature visible lower right on red reserve.
