Lot #36: ORIGINAL !SIGNED Surrealist Striking Mid-Century Modern Expressio

Offered here is a captivating 1970 signed original painting, an evocative surrealist portrait that blends mid-century modern aesthetics with poetic, dreamlike imagery. Created at the dawn of the 1970s—an era defined by artistic experimentation and bold visual language—this work carries all the hallmarks of early modern expressionism: sculpted facial geometry, shadowed duality, atmospheric gradients, and a refined, intentionally stylized profile. The mysterious female figure, draped in a soft green head covering, emerges from a smoky blue background that shifts seamlessly into warm earth tones. The artist masterfully balances surrealism, abstraction, and figurative portraiture, achieving a composition that feels both introspective and powerfully iconic.
