Signed (reverse)This painting was created by the American contemporary master Cy Twombly (1928-2011), whose unique style blends abstract expressionism with gestural calligraphy. Twombly holds a vital position in postwar art history, known for his fusion of classical mythology, poetic allusions, and raw gestural marks. Influenced by Robert Rauschenberg and Franz Kline in his early years, Twombly later settled in Italy, where he developed a visual language that merges modernist abstraction with classical lyricism.
