Vintage 20th Century original oil painting dancing clown
$95
SHIPPING OFFERED
Offered for sale is this original 20th Century Australian oil painting (on USA-made Morilla canvas board) by H Lang, dating from the 1950’s to 1960’s. Despite extensive research there is very limited information available on the artist – who most likely lived/worked in the Geelong area (as another of his works is held by the City of Greater Geelong in their collection). At some point this work has been framed by/for an ‘M Mackie’.
Using a wonderfully expressive, naive and energetic style, the dynamic and strong portrait of a performing clown has been created. Dressed in an oversized, comical flowing red and white pompom costume they are depicted surrounded by bubbles and performing with a hoop.
As with any work of clown art, there is a slightly disturbing Gothic, dark edge – this clown has an almost manic feel to their body position and two-toothed facial expression. Intentional or not, with large clown shoe poised and ready to plant forwards they look as if they’re about to leap from the canvas. And into your lounge.
Perfect for any lover of Gothic or clown artwork. We know you’re out there. So do the clowns.
In excellent original condition.
Measures (framed) 35cm (h) x 25cm (w) approximately.
Please check the pictures as they form part of the item description.
Cash or direct deposit sale only. Can freight at buyers expense (must include insurance for damage or loss) or can personally deliver to Macedon Ranges, Melbourne, Geelong or Ballarat CBD’s for a fee. Where possible (or upon request) a physical inspection is available and always encouraged. Accurate as possible description at time of listing, however like any secondhand item is sold without guarantee or return so please ask any questions before purchase - as any sale is final.
