This sophisticated Cubist oil on canvas, Girls in a Field, by Yves Aubry (1945–2023), is signed lower right and presented in its original frame. Aubry’s composition transforms a pastoral scene into an engaging arrangement of simplified forms, planes, and color, giving the work a distinctly modern character while retaining the warmth of a figurative subject. A French painter, Aubry worked extensively within a Cubist and modernist vocabulary, exploring the relationship between figures, landscape, and geometric form. His work demonstrates an understanding of the enduring influence of Cubism while maintaining a more accessible, decorative quality. A memorable characteristic of Aubry’s work is the way he brings recognizable subjects into a more structured, contemporary visual language. In Girls in a Field, the human figures and landscape are treated as elements within a carefully balanced composition rather than as a traditional realistic scene. This gives the painting both historical connection to Cubism and a fresh decorative appeal. For interior designers, Girls in a Field offers an appealing balance of figurative subject matter and modern composition. Its scale, original frame, and sophisticated Cubist vocabulary make it equally appropriate for a transitional interior, contemporary collection, library, or living space. Measurements: 33” × 27.5” framed and 28.5” × 23” unframed. Condition: Excellent.Price: $3,000.
