This is a copy of one of the canvases of Matisse, it was done in 1919. The canvas size was 66*50cm, and the painting was done with oils. However, the reference copy that I have, displayed the image in tones of grey, so I do not know if the original has colour or this was merely a underpainting. The fact that the hands were not well defined lends itself to this idea, well at least to me.
Robin is an artist who has a unique stamp: he works on gold and silver leaf. The style of completely covering the canvas with gold or silver, and in some cases both, is unusual to say the least. Also, being particular to an art movement called Assemblage. Very similar to collage, but instead of 2 dimensional, it also includes 3 dimensional objects
