Vintage 1954 Mid-Century Modern Expressionist Seascape – Monogrammed "B.G."
Up for sale is a Vintage original 1954 mid-century oil on canvas seascape painting featuring a dramatic, turbulent ocean scene with crashing waves, dark sea foam, and rugged coastal rock formations beneath an overcast sky.
Executed with thick, expressive impasto brushwork, this piece exhibits strong movement, deep texture, and a moody palette characteristic of 1950s modernist style. The painting is signed in the lower right corner with a hand-painted monogram "B.G." above the creation date "54" (1954).
Exhibits noticeable, natural age-related drying craquelure (surface cracking) on the heavily layered areas of dark paint (specifically across the foreground rocks), consistent with vintage impasto oil works.
Measures approximately 15 by 18 inches.
Unframed.
From a Private Collection.
