This Mid-Century Modern abstract oil painting is by American artist Peter G. Cohen. It features an abstract landscape or cityscape with a cubist-influenced, geometric arrangement of colorful squares and rectangles. The patchwork composition structurally interprets a landscape, frequently evoking a stylized harbor, cityscape, or clustered architectural elements common in Cohen's early career before his transition toward micro-vision cell abstractions in the 1970s. The artists signature and date can be found in the bottom right of the canvas. The artwork is housed in a clean, minimalist white wooden frame.

Peter G. Cohen was an American painter known for his evolving style that bridged architectural geometry, social commentary, and biological structures. His mid-century harbor scenes and architectural abstractions remain highly collectible among enthusiasts of post-war American art. See less
