Figurative Garden Scenes By Ortuno – Pair Of Framed Vintage Lithographs
Artist: Ortuno
Description
These two large-format lithographs by Ortuno present stylised outdoor scenes rendered in a bold, flattened pictorial language characteristic of mid-20th-century figurative printmaking. Executed in lithography, the compositions combine simplified human figures with domestic garden settings, using expansive areas of turquoise, ochre, yellow, and earthy reds. The artist employs layered colour fields, soft textural transitions, and carefully balanced negative space to create a calm yet visually dynamic surface. Signed in pencil “Ortuno” and numbered 48/150 and 50/200 respectively, the pair reads as a cohesive set, unified by palette, scale, and subject. Together, they offer a strong decorative presence with clear graphic impact and period character.

Ortuno (dates unknown) was an active 20th-century artist working primarily in figurative lithography.
