About
This 1989 work is emblematic of Colville’s philosophical interest in existentialism. As the woman lays limp on the thin diving board plank, her arm droops down, mimicking a lifeless corpse. The perspective of the diving board protruding into the frame against the expansive landscape backdrop contributes to the haunting isolation of the image. After witnessing the horrors of World War II during his time in the military, Colville’s post-war work often takes on subtle existentialist and morbid themes.

Woman on Diving Board
by: Alex Colville
We Offer High Quality
Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
