This authentic, hand-painted, original Oil Painting from the Mid 20th Century shows a single lit candle on a dark background, with the flame and wax rendered in warm tones against deep black. The composition is simple and direct, and the visible brushwork gives the candle a tactile presence on the canvas. You can see the textured paint surface and slight craquelure that speak to its age and hand-painted nature. This one-of-a-kind work would make a quiet, evocative addition to a thoughtful collector’s cabinet. Mid 20th Century. The painting measures 30 × 39 cm (11.8 × 15.4 inches) (framed, if shown) and weighs: 0.7 kg (1.5 lbs). If you see a frame in the pictures, it comes with the artwork :)
