Olga Orana – Original drawing signed and dated '81 ink on paper 30x40 cm

Olga Orana (1924–2012) – Original drawing signed ORANA 81, black ink, expressionist composition. Original drawing in black ink on paper, signed at the top left "ORANA 81" and dated 1981. This work, visible at the centre of the first line on the presentation document, develops a stylised female portrait structured by a wide dark vertical band, contrasting the face with a set of geometric and organic shapes. The work is entirely executed in black ink, alternating tight hatching, crosshatching, and dense areas, creating a graphic tension characteristic of the expressionist influence associated with the artist. The composition blends free figuration and an almost cubist construction, with a marked balance between solid masses and open areas. A painter and poet born in Casablanca in 1924, who settled in Marseille from the 1970s, Olga Orana exhibited notably at the Marrakech Winter Salon from the 1950s. She is regularly described as an artist of expressionist inspiration. Work on white paper (dimensions to be specified), presented in a modern black frame with a dark mount. The overall condition is good: clean paper, with no visible tears or major alterations; slight natural undulations possible related to the support. Frame with discreet signs of use.
