The artwork, titled “Ocean Park #46,” was created by Richard Diebenkorn in 1971. Executed in oil on canvas, it is part of the abstract genre and associated with the Color Field Painting movement. This piece belongs to the “Ocean Park” series, which spans from 1968 to 1985. The dimensions of the artwork are 205.7 by 205.7 cm.
“Ocean Park #46” exhibits a sophisticated interplay of color planes and geometric forms. The composition is dominated by a large field of muted, pastel shades, interspersed with angular sections of blue, beige, and grey. At the top, a narrow band of red adds a striking contrast, while subtle lines and shapes provide structure and depth. The gentle transitions between colors evoke a serene, contemplative atmosphere, typical of Diebenkorn’s mastery in abstraction and color harmonization.
