Winter Portrait
Canadian Dollars
watercolour
20 x 28 inches
1963
signed
unframed
Catalogue No: TNYIL-151
The heavy, oversized winter coat and the hat result in an unusual portrait. India ink lines create the anatomical details in the face and hands.
The “busy” lines and colours reflect Nyilasi’s love of a free approach to watercolour portraiture.
This painting from 1963 shows the artist's early confidence with watercolour, sense of personal stylistic expression, and mastery of anatomical drawing.
