Armand Lourenco Oil Painting on Canvas of Horse Race signed framed

AN ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING ON CANVAS BY LISTED FRENCH ARTIST ARMAND LOURENCO (1925 2004). THE PAINTING DEPICTS JOCKEYS WEARING COLORFUL SILKS AND HELMETS, RACING THEIR MOUNTS IN A HORIZONTAL BAND ACROSS THE CENTER OF THE COMPOSITION. LEFT BOTTOM CATCHES THE LUSH GREEN LANDSCAPE LINING THE RACE TRACK AS THE DENSE PACK OF JOCKEYS AND HORSES ARE THRUSTING PAST; AND ABOVE TOP RIGHT CAPTURES THE ACTION IN THE STANDS OF AN ON-LOOKER IN THE SAME TENSE EXCITEMENT AND SPEED. IT IS LOOSELY RENDERED THROUGH PREDOMINANTLY HORIZONTAL BRUSHSTROKES CREATING THE SENSE OF SWIFT MOVEMENT. THE WORK IS SIGNED IN RED TO THE LOWER MID LEFT. IT IS PRESENTED IN A VERY SIMPLE MINIMAL METAL FRAME WITH A GOLD-TONE FINISH AND IS READY TO HANG WITH A WIRE. 19" W x 23.4" H
