An evocative example of late-period color field abstraction, “Sagapoback” is a 1995 oil on canvas by Esteban Vicente (1903–2001), a founding member of the New York School of Abstract Expressionism. Born in Turégano, Spain, Vicente became a pivotal figure in American modern art, contributing a lyrical sensibility and masterful color balance to the movement. This work is signed and dated on the reverse and presented in a white powder-coated metal shadowbox frame, emphasizing its contemporary minimalism.

With its meditative composition and signature palette, “Sagapoback” reflects Vicente’s mastery in evoking emotion through pure chromatic relationships and spatial harmony. Measuring over 50 inches in height, this substantial piece is ideal for collectors of post-war American art, institutions, or curators seeking historically significant Abstract Expressionist works that transcend gesture in favor of poetic color and presence.
