The players 1 - Adrian DeDea

Two polo players race neck and neck on chestnut horses, one in white leaning forward with his mallet stretched out, the other in navy and a straw hat just behind. Beneath the horses the green field and red-and-white stands blur into horizontal bands, while the riders and horses stay crisp.

Oil on canvas, painted in 2025 with blurred, dragged brushwork around a sharp centre. Adrian DeDea is a figurative painter in Düsseldorf, trained at the Academy of Art in Cluj-Napoca, who opens his subjects up to stylisation and abstraction. Available as a poster or fine art canvas print in multiple sizes.
