Infuse your space with the passionate energy of the ballroom with this stunning vintage framed print of "Scarlet Dancer" by the acclaimed American artist Bill Brauer. Measuring approximately 21 1/2 inches by 15 1/2 inches, this mid-to-late 20th-century piece perfectly captures Brauer’s signature style—a masterclass in combining figurative realism with a sleek, graphic modernism. Bill Brauer was celebrated for his ability to portray movement and human form through bold blocks of color and dramatic light, and this "Scarlet Dancer" is perhaps one of his most iconic subjects. The deep, fiery red of the dancer’s gown provides a powerful focal point, while the minimalist background emphasizes the sweeping, rhythmic curves of the tango.
The print itself is in very good condition, retaining its rich saturation and crisp detail. It comes housed in its original dark frame, which does show some light scrapes and honest wear from years of display, adding to its genuine vintage appeal. This artwork is a perfect choice for a "maximalist" gallery wall or as a sophisticated statement piece in a modern "Boho" living room or a dance studio. Its evocative subject matter makes it a wonderful conversation starter, bringing a sense of movement and "old-world" romance into a contemporary setting. Whether you are an enthusiast of the tango, a collector of mid-century American illustrators, or simply looking to add a splash of bold color to a neutral "farmhouse" palette, this Bill Brauer print is a timeless investment in style.
