Gouache on paper by the very famous Dutch artist Eugene Brands.
The work is called 'Red Evening' and shows a very typical Brands representation with a bright red base and black and white accents.
On the back is a note written 'a prosperous '69' and signed by Brands ('& fam'). The title of the work is at the bottom left of the note. So it was given as a gift by the artist.
The work was subsequently part of the collection of Gerard Hofland, a world-famous gallery owner who sells a lot of work by Eugene Brands.
The condition of the work is very good, only the paper in the top right corner is no longer completely smooth. It will probably have been in his studio or between the folders for a while, that charming idea makes everything right for me anyway. The colors are beautiful and striking. The frame is in very good condition and the work looks good.
Brands signed the work lower right and dated 1968.
Can be picked up in Amsterdam, but shipping is also possible.
