Batture Shanty At Riverbend

Clarence Millet 1956

Ogden Museum of Southern Art
New Orleans, United States

There is an abstract quality in this painting evident in the layers of grey-green coloration defining the marshy river bank. The slashing sense of line in the coloration are reminiscent of Cezanne . This also brings to mind the abstract work of Hans Hofmann and the Provence Town School which dominated the art consciousness of the Academic Art in the 1950s.
