Abstract composition arranged in horizontal bands, with the lower section built from closely grouped rectangular fields of colour. The structure and repetition of forms suggest an urban environment viewed from a distance, with surfaces appearing darkened and reflective, as if after rainfall. The upper register remains open and lightly worked, functioning as sky. The palette is restrained, dominated by blues, greys, ochres, greens, and muted reds. Paint is applied in overlapping passages with softened transitions, allowing the composition to read as both abstract and architectural. Signed in monogram, lower right, by artist Olaf Runge (Denmark, 1913-2018) and dated 1990. A late work by the artist. Oil on panel with dimensions 61x71cm framed Show more
