Titled “Girolata”, the artwork in question was painted by Joan Mitchell in 1964. This piece belongs to the Abstract Expressionism movement and falls within the abstract genre.
The artwork comprises a triptych, with each panel presenting a harmonious interplay of colors and forms that epitomize Joan Mitchell’s signature style. Dominated by vigorous and expressive brushstrokes, the canvas is replete with layers of greens, blues, and whites, interspersed with areas of pinks and yellows. The composition exudes a lyrical spontaneity, invoking the dynamic energy and emotional depth characteristic of Abstract Expressionism. The abstract forms evoke a sense of organic growth and movement, suggestive of natural landscapes distilled into pure form and color.
