French 1900-1999 Painting Layered Earth-Like Spheres in Abstract Composition

Abstract Expressionist Composition by Gilbert Pelissier (French born 1924) signed, inscribed verso dated 85 oil painting on canvas, unframed canvas size: 20 x 24 inches condition: overall very good, a few minor surface scuffs from being stored in the artists studio provenance: all the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artists estate, Paris, France. Description: This thought-provoking surrealist oil painting invites viewers into a layered, abstract landscape where earth-like spheres appear to cascade over each other, blending natural and cosmic imagery. The scene presents an array of textured, golden-brown spherical forms, reminiscent of geological formations or planetary bodies, set against a background of blue tones that evoke the ocean or sky. Each sphere is meticulously detailed, with layers and waves that suggest a sense of geological time or cosmic motion, while fine strokes and impasto texture bring a tactile depth to the surface.
