This striking oil painting titled "Seated Girl on Blue Chair" was created by Belgian artist Leopold Leysen, better known under his pseudonym Pol Mara (1920–1998). Signed with his birth name, L. Leysen, the work likely dates from the earlier phase of his career, before he fully embraced the name Pol Mara. Rendered in oil on canvas and measuring 100 x 80 cm, the painting depicts a young woman sitting contemplatively on a blue chair. with its soft palette, expressive brushwork, and serene atmosphere, the piece captures an intimate moment, characteristic of Mara's sensitivity to the human figure and emotional nuance. Pol Mara rose to prominence in the mid-20th century and became internationally recognized for his dreamlike, poetic compositions that often merged elements of Pop Art, figuration, and abstraction. He represented Belgium at the Venice Biennale in 1970 and was appointed official court painter in 1985. This artwork offers a glimpse into the early development of one of Belgium’s most renowned modern artists and is a valuable collector's piece for admirers of 20th-century European painting.
