La chute de Lucifer 1951

"La chute de Lucifer" (1951) by Maurice Estève is an abstract painting that exemplifies the artist's signature style. Bold, organic shapes rendered in vibrant hues of red, yellow, green, and blue dominate the composition. The artist's use of thick impasto creates a textured surface, adding a third dimension to the work. While the title suggests a narrative, the painting itself is non-representational, leaving room for individual interpretation. The interplay of color and form evokes a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of Estève's abstract works.
