ABSTRACT Expressionist SEASCAPE Oil Painting SIGNED Ralph ROSENBORG Provincetown

Description: Rare original abstract oil painting by one of the great founding members of the Expressionist movement, Ralph Rosenborg. "Nocturnal Seascape with Objects" is a magical nighttime view of Provincetown, Massachusetts, a beguiling composition that almost refuses to resolve itself, simultaneously fluctuating in its vibrant shape and colors. As with the best art, its mood and identity alter with the changing light: now looking like a colorful if brooding midnight coastal town; then shifting and sparkling like a pond of colorful koi. Mere words and photographs cannot capture the dynamism of seeing this unique and entrancing artwork in person. Made at the hight of the legendary art scene in the early 1950s, of which the epicenter in Provincetown was the famous . H.C. Gallery owned Nathan Halper, this picture was originally purchased from the gallery by (I was told when I acquired it) a member of the Getty family. The artist took an astonishing two years to paint this work, from 1952-1954. Collectors will readily recognize the significance of this time and place and provenance in modern art history. The painting is on artist's board, measuring approximately 12 ½ x 8 inches. The original frame (apparently made and mounted by the artist himself) is about 24 x 20 x 2 inches. The brown burlap matte is original to the era, and there is, as you can see, a tear in the fabric at left; however, an updated framing would absolutely transform this painting to the next level and beyond. The piece is signed by the artist lower left, and also has the artist's handwritten label on reverse. Overall condition of the painting is near perfect. There is just one minor, hardly noticeable tiny flake at bottom right within the dark black background (see last photo in listing). The rest of the entire painting is in excellent condition -- the thick and substantial impasto globs and strokes of pigment all intact and swirling in an almost sculptural texture. Some scuffs and scratches to wooden frame. This painting has been part of my personal collection for many years; however, needs must I allow the next lucky owner to cherish it as much as I have done. This Rosenborg does not disappoint, and it's one of the finer examples of his body of work. Far and away one of the best I've ever seen. Truly museum worthy. Priced for speedy sale.
