Portrait of Frank Haviland Burty

The 'Portrait of Frank Haviland Burty' is an exemplary work of Expressionism, capturing the character of the French Cubist painter with raw emotion and vivid strokes. The portrait, outstanding for its bold application of colour and form, was created using oil on a canvas. The choice of medium allowed for a powerful and dynamic representation of the sitter, a man known for his friendships with iconic artists like Picasso and Braque, and for his early appreciation of African Art. The portrait beautifully captures Haviland's evocative persona while portraying the essence of expressionism in its execution.
