BIOGRAPHY:
Everybody loved Anthony Tony Springer (1928-1995), a former lawyer who earned a well-deserved reputation as the Painter of Greenwich Village until his unexpected death in 1995 at the early age of 67. Tony was a wonderful, quietly mysterious kind of guy, who played poker all night long, slept until the late morning, and then grabbed his half-box French easel and 16x20 inch stretched linen canvas to paint the narrow side streets of the Village in the dusty afternoon light, a habit he kept up for 20 years or more. His plein air work also took him to the nearby streets of Soho and Chinatown, and the markets of Chelsea and Tribeca.
