R. Mattias (or Niattias) (European, active in mid 20th century), "Marketplace", oil on canvas, ca. 1950s, signed R. Mattias (or possibly Niattias) on lower right. A charming bird's eye view of a European urban street with vendors selling their wares below large umbrellas framed by vernacular buildings with clotheslines strewn from window to window - sumptuously painted with rich passages of thick impasto. Facing the viewer is a lovely woman dressed in a long sleeve blue blouse and a full red skirt holding a basket of produce. In general, the palette is rich with peacock blue, scarlet red, sky blue, bright white, muted pink, violet, earthtone, and cool green hues. A vibrant painting rendered in an expressive manner and set in a handsome carved wood frame. Size: 27" L x 19" W (68.6 cm x 48.3 cm); 33.25" L x 25" W (84.5 cm x 63.5 cm) including frame
Provenance: private Palm Desert, California, USA collection; acquired by descent from Maurice (Red) Silverstein who was President of MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios) International and Betty Silverstein, known as Betty Bryant, who was a successful actress in Australia prior to marrying Red. Always very active socially in New York City, the couple knew many famous artists, writers, and actors in the 1950's - 1970's.
