The artwork entitled “Young Man” is a portrait created by John Currin in the year 1992. Executed in oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Contemporary Realism art movement and measures 91.5 by 81.1 centimeters.
The artwork depicts a young man against a solid, richly textured green background. His expression appears contemplative, with a slight tilt of the head and softened features that reflect light subtly, lending a lifelike quality to the painting. The subject’s dark hair is neatly styled, contrasting with the vibrant blue of his high-neck garment, which occupies the lower portion of the canvas. The minimalist background and detailed portrait showcase Currin’s meticulous technique and his ability to evoke depth and character through subtle brushwork and composition.
