Description
A striking square oil on canvas that appears in a figurative–expressionist vein. Three tightly cropped male heads in stovepipe-style hats are set against a deep cobalt ground, their bared teeth and strong profiles rendered in earthy umbers with flashes of white and a yellow hatband for contrast. The surface shows a lively brush and a textured ground, giving the composition a gritty, graphic presence.
