    Outstanding 1992 abstract oil on canvas of racing bicycles (or motorcycles?) by noted Brazilian painter and sculptor Marçal Athayde (b. 1962). Athayde exhibited in Sao Luis while in his 20s, holding his first exhibition at Eney Santana Gallery and exhibiting at the Salao Maranhense de Artes Plasticas. He moved to Rio de Janeiro in the mid 1980s, exhibiiting at the Sao Paulo Biennial and the National Salon of Fine Arts. He was represented by the Jean Boghici Gallery in Rio for several decades. Most recently Athayde held exhibitions at the Art and History Museum of Maranhao (2019) and the National Museum (2021) with an exhibition titled "The Enigma of the City." Athayde's work is in numerous public and private collections.
    This oil on canvas is signed, dated, and titled verso. A letter from Jean Boghici Gallery is attached to the painting. It measures 19.5" x 19.5" (painting size) and is in good condition. Framed as shown.
