As a contemporary of Derain, Picasso, Soutine & Modigliani and working from his Montparnasse studio, Polish born Terlikowski’s earlier works were influenced by Fauvism.
In this painting, his clearly defined pallet knife worked carefully on a green gold ground, setting fresh colours with contrasting areas. This approach keeps your eye moving around this impasto oil on canvas which still has a vibrant richness. This Terlikowski sits correctly in a glorious, aged frame.
