“B-Walnut Stain” is an abstract artwork created by Pierre Soulages in 2004 using paper as the medium. This piece belongs to the Tachisme art movement and showcases Soulages’ characteristic exploration of form and contrast.
The artwork features rich variations in texture and tone, predominantly using deep, dark hues interspersed with lighter bands. The composition is marked by horizontal brushstrokes that create a striking interplay between opacity and translucency, reminiscent of walnut stain effects. The use of these contrasting elements brings a sense of depth and dynamism to the artwork, encapsulating the essence of abstract expression through its minimalist yet powerful visual language.
