Energy at large format
Charcoal in the expressive, gestural style turns a picture into a record of movement. Paintings in the gestural style with charcoal from 2,000 to 5,000 euro are for sale here, in formats that allow the full swing of the arm.
On canvases as tall as a person, lines run across the entire surface and seem to break off at the edges. The charcoal crumbles, dusts and leaves remains that belong to the picture. Where color joins, it sets hard contrasts against the soft black.

The 2,000 to 5,000 euro tier
With originals, this tier usually shows large formats, established artistic handwriting and elaborate layering. Read the description for notes on fixing, varnish and the back, since at this size build and tension are decisive.
Placing and viewing
Such pictures need distance and good light from the side. A room with a high ceiling, a studio or a loft wall suits them, a narrow hallway does not. A slim frame in dark wood separates the picture cleanly from the wall.
