Description

A tragic and striking mid Century scene in gouache, showing a group of people fleeing a catastrophic fire that engulfs their whole town. A woman to the right is overcome with grief and holds her head in her hands. The central figure in blue reaches for the distraught woman and looks back towards the town with her hair billowing across her face. The artist has used a naive, dry brush technique adding a juxtaposing childishness to this tragic scene. The artist has signed to the reverse. On wove.

Condition

The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration. Small loss to the upper left corner.
