The artwork titled “Balmoral” was created by the artist Brett Whiteley in 1978. This piece is categorized within the Surrealism art movement and belongs to the figurative genre.
The artwork depicts a beach scene with various figures, portrayed in a surreal and exaggerated manner. The figures are spread across the sand in different poses, with some sitting, lying down, or engaging in activities typical of a beach setting. The use of distorted and elongated forms is evident, giving the scene an unusual and dreamlike quality. The vibrant colors, especially the use of yellows for the sand and blues for the sea, evoke a lively atmosphere. Despite the surrealistic distortions, the figures retain recognizable human features and activities, creating an intriguing blend of realism and fantasy.
