Barry De More (1948-2023), a celebrated Yorkshire-born expressionist artist, beautifully captures Peter Paul Rubens' (1577-1640) 'Venus and Adonis (a sketch)' in this acrylic painting. Signed by the artist and inscribed verso, the artwork measures 30cm x 31cm.
Renowned for his heavy impasto style, De More's artwork is a testament to his deep appreciation of Yorkshire landscapes, townscapes, and its people. His unique approach places him among the likes of Kossoff and Auerbach, with his pieces sought after by collectors both in the UK and internationally.
