Intaglio print with carborundum in colours and hand-colouring in egg tempera on Arches paper. Signed with initials, dated and numbered in pencil. Published by Waddington Graphics, London. // In this richly saturated intaglio with carborundum from 1990, Howard Hodgkin conjures the sensory immediacy of tropical foliage through a luminous lime-green central field animated by cascading dark green marks suggestive of palm fronds. A warm terracotta border frames the composition with architectural solidity, while a red triangle and blue-purple angular form in the lower right introduce a counterpoint of geometric tension. The work exemplifies Hodgkin's singular ability to compress remembered experience into fields of intense, emotive colour that hover between abstraction and evocation.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
