Magnificent good work by Martineau! Unique TOP work by this well-known artist. Ink and pencil In excellent condition! This is a unique work by Anton Martineau, in which his playful expression is expressed and portrays the dynamics between man and woman as Martineau experienced them.
Anton Martineau knows the Amsterdam Red Light District like the back of his hand. He was born there in 1926 as the son of a house painter. His mother earned some extra money as a clairvoyant and included the girls from the neighborhood among her clientele. The kinship of Martineau with the Cobra painters and especially with Lucebert is visible, but Martineau pays more attention to details, on the edge of tights or a shoulder strap. Karel Appel, Corneille, Jan Sierhuis and poet Gerrit Kouwenaar were also good friends of Anton.
Subjects are: people, dancing couples, tango, eroticism, drama of love and death, joy and fear, absurd portraits and still lifes.
