Fabulous original Donald McIntyre Painting for sale, depicting Calf Island, Iona in great colours and framed.
Provenance: Callaghan's of Shrewsbury
This bold acrylic on paper by Donald McIntyre, a leading exponent of modern British art, is a fine example of his late-career output, in which strong colour and vigorous application of paint conspire to evoke the raw spirit of the Scottish coastline. Calf Island, Iona glows with McIntyre’s distinctive palette—brilliant blues and purples, and sun-baked oranges—conjuring the Hebridean scenery with vigor and panache.
The painterly assurance of an experienced colourist, the work is testimony to McIntyre’s profound relationship with Iona, an island he visited repeatedly, finding inspiration in its landscape. The dynamic composition and luminous surface of the painting perfectly exemplify the qualities that make his work so desirable on the open market for modern British art today.
Featured in The English Home (May 2022),(read more) this work serves as a testament to McIntyre’s powerful legacy and is a rewarding addition to any collection, offering collectors the opportunity to own a powerful work by one of Britain’s most popular postwar painters.
