MONUMENTAL OIL WITH ABSTRACT FIGURES SIGNED “ALANNA” (1990s)

An imposing untitled work by an unknown modernist. The mask theme and the segmented bodies in this trichromatic oil-on-canvas conjure up a deconstructed, eyeless ‘Les Demoiselles d'Avignon’—in subtler, earthy tones. Close inspection reveals its composition to be fraught with gesture. Signed “ALANNA” en verso along one of its corner braces. Unframed.
