ROMARE BEARDEN (1911 - 1988) Untitled (Two Figures on a Green Ground).

ROMARE BEARDEN (1911 - 1988)
Untitled (Two Figures on a Green Ground).

Watercolor, dye, brush and ink on wove paper, circa 1948. 620x410 mm; 24 1/2x18 1/2 inches. Signed in ink, lower right.

Ex-collection: Bill Hodges Gallery, New York; private New York collection.

This striking work on paper from Bearden's post-war figurative series has an experimental wash of vivid green dye. The vertical composition, two interwoven figures and underlying ink drawing all link it to the Iliad series of 1948.
