Lot Essay

This is a very unusual painting by Naseer Chaura, unlike his other abstracted landscapes where the vegetal forms enclose fine lines within the same tones of colours. This style of this has echoes of two of his previous periods, both his pure abstract style of the 1960s and his earlier more literal impressionistic style.
