Description:

This is a limited edition hand-hammered metal relief by the acclaimed Ukrainian-American artist Anatole Krasnyansky (1930-2023). Krasnyansky, known for pioneering unique techniques in both watercolor and other media, combined his architectural training and fine art skills to create works that blend cubist and surrealist abstraction with expressive, mask-like figures.

This piece is a striking example of his work in hammered metal, a medium he mastered using an eye for detail and textural expression. The central figure is likely a "Scaramouche" character, common in his work, that often embodies themes of music, theater, and architecture. The artwork is mounted on a textured, earthy-toned background, matted in white, and set within a black frame, ready for display.
