Edition of 60 - Hand-painted etching and aquatint with carborundum on 16 sheets of Velin Arches paper - In excellent condition // Venice, Afternoon by Howard Hodgkin, created in 1995, is a vibrant and expressive etching and aquatint that captures the essence of an afternoon in Venice. Utilizing carborundum and hand-painting on multiple sheets of Velin Arches paper, Hodgkin employs bold strokes and rich earth tones, punctuated by deep blues, to evoke both the heat and the tranquil mood of the Venetian landscape. The composition is layered with dappled patterns and dark marks, suggestive of shadows, reflections, and the interplay of light on water. Limited to an edition of 60, this artwork is characterized by Hodgkin’s gestural style, which prioritizes emotional resonance over realistic detail, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the ambiance of the scene rather than its literal depiction.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
