Vintage Ivan Rabuzin "Big Forest" Large-Format Textile Wall Hanging This pre-owned, vintage Ivan Rabuzin 'Big Forest' large-format textile wall hanging showcases the artist's iconic naive style with its intricate, dot-patterned landscape design. The piece features a peaceful rural scene with rolling hills, quaint village houses, and lush, stylized trees, rendered in a soothing, soft-toned palette. This textile art is in good condition, offering a unique decorative focal point for any art enthusiast's home. Artist: Ivan Rabuzin (Croatian, 1921–2008) — Celebrated master of international naive, folk, and lyrical art. Title / Composition: Big Forest (Velika šuma), after his landmark 1966 original masterwork. Medium: Vintage mid-century screen print on heavy textured canvas-weave textile fabric. Dimensions: 44" Width x 36" Height. Format: Stretched on a flush wooden support frame, ready for exhibition. Signature Details: Unsigned, premium commercial decorator textile release. Description & Aesthetic: An exceptional example of mid-century statement decor featuring the unmistakable utopian design vocabulary of Ivan Rabuzin. The composition showcases his signature absolute geometric forms, rhythmic pointillist fields, stylized bulbous tree lines, and clusters of traditional half-timbered cottages nestled in a rolling valley. The sky is filled with meticulously arranged pointillist clouds floating above a pastoral landscape executed in a soft, dreamy palette of pastel pinks, mint greens, and warm earthy ochres. Large-scale fabric panels like this were produced in limited quantities during the 1970s and 1980s, bridging the gap between fine art and avant-garde interior design. Condition Report: The textile canvas remains securely stretched with excellent structural integrity. The face of the fabric displays bright, even coloration with no major water damage, prominent staining, sagging, or tears. Minor age-appropriate wear to the edge margins consistent with vintage status. Styling Note: An iconic focal piece that serves as an excellent visual anchor for Scandinavian Modern, Mid-Century Modern (MCM), Boho-Chic, or contemporary eclectic spaces.
Dimensions: 44" Width x 36" Height.
