(SOLD)

In La Terre fermentée one can see how Fini’s ability to lay paint and her exquisite use of color helped to set her apart from her contemporaries. These talents are very well exemplified in this painting where Fini seems to be indulging and exploring her fascination with the earth and its living components. Creatures and faces can be extrapolated and the sense of being ‘in and of the earth’ is extreme.

The beginnings of her ‘Floral Period’ can be discerned in both the forms and the colors. Oil on canvas, 25.5” x 39.5”.
