A compact and intimate study by Canadian painter Glen Nicoll, whose work often explores presence and solitude through simplified form and saturated color. Here, a cropped male portrait emerges from a warm yellow ground, the brushwork raw and immediate, leaving traces of the artist’s process visible along the frayed edges of the cut canvas.
Oil on canvas fragment, mounted and framed, circa 1990–2000
Presented in a solid wood frame with linen mat, the piece distills Nicoll’s larger compositions into a concentrated gesture — both painterly and psychological.
Medium: Oil on canvas (mounted)
Frame: Wood with linen mat
Dimensions: Approx. 10.25 × 9 in (fr.), canvas ~ 5 × 5 in
Signed: Unsigned, attributed from a private collection
Condition: Excellent
