"L'Artiste" by Berkeley-based figurative artist Prabin Badhia is a compelling expressionist portrait exploring the intricate persona of Lucian Freud, the famous painter and Sigmund Freud's grandson. The painting presents the subject in a dynamic stance against a vivid crimson backdrop, with thick, impastoed brushstrokes that convey raw emotional energy. Surrealist elements and psychological depth reflect Lucian Freud's artistic focus, offering a powerful meta-commentary through one artist's portrayal of another. The piece commands attention, dominating any wall it graces.
About L'Artiste by Prabin Badhia
This contemporary work from the 2020s measures 25.5 inches in width and height, with a depth of 2.25 inches. The oil on board painting is set in a dark frame that enhances its dramatic impact. Falling under both figurative and surrealist styles, the piece is in mint condition and showcases Badhia's expert paint handling, especially in the sculptural brushwork. The bold use of crimson reds and flesh tones, along with its psychological intensity, marks it as a significant example of contemporary portraiture, bridging traditional figurative art and modern expressionism.
