A quiet, intimate moment captured in warm, luminous oils: in “Bather with Yellow Towel,” Eric Wallis paints a young woman standing in profile beside a sunlit window, drawing a bright yellow towel to her beside a washbasin. Soft morning light washes over the scene in pale blues and creams, glowing against the warm tones of the figure and the deep shadows of the room.
Painted with confident, loose brushwork in an impressionistic manner, the work is signed lower right “E. Wallis.” The reverse is hand-inscribed with the title “Bather with Yellow Towel,” the size “16x20,” the artist’s signature and the date 2005. The canvas is presented in an ornate gold-tone frame with a gold inner liner and decorative carved corners, and comes wired and ready to hang.
A refined choice for collectors of contemporary figurative art and the classic bather theme, and an elegant statement piece for a bedroom, dressing room, study or gallery wall.
