Lot: 146 - Michael Ryan (American/Dutch, b. 1953) Mixed Media on Paper, Night Landscape
An exceptionally vibrant and tactile contemporary Impressionist landscape by renowned artist Michael Ryan. Renowned for his lifelong study of light and atmosphere across both his native New York and his home in the Netherlands, Ryan delivers a masterclass in mood and saturation in this nocturnal landscape scene with two cows. The composition is heavily anchored in rich, velvet planes of ultramarine, deep violet, and emerald green undergrowth. Breaking through the darkness is a dramatic, highly built-up burst of luminous pastel and golden-yellow impasto highlights, emulating a breaking twilight or reflecting sky. True to the artist's multi-layered approach, the work beautifully balances fluid, watercolor-like depth with heavily layered, dense texturing in the central celestial body"showing a beautifully matured, structurally complex "caked" surface variance that creates exquisite physical dimensionality. Medium: Mixed media gauche and pastel on heavily textured paper. Signed M. Ryan in the lower right quadrant. This item is housed in a high-quality gallery frame. Artist: Michael Ryan (American/Dutch, b. 1953) Dimensions: Frame size: 17.75"L x 21.75"H; sight size 11.5"L x 15.5"H
