Description
TUSCANY, 1987.
Truly lovely and subtle original artwork on paper from a listed American artist (deceased) based in Washington, D.C. - David Yerkes.
Subject is clearly a perfect swatch of Northern Italy, portrayed by the delicate hand of a talented artist.
Green, black, pink, gray, and burnt orange...a mid-century vibe with truly elegant presentation.
18.5" tall by 22.25" wide - custom framing for sure. Beautiful silver and black molding with museum style pure white mat - with a pen line...excellent! - to be sure the viewer concentrates on the beautiful subject.
In keeping with Aesop's fable, Fox and Crow's Motto is "Beware of False Flattery!" So, with each listing we offer a true confession about the item...we were INCREDIBLY lucky to find two of Yerkes original paintings in a very fine Northern Virginia estate. To our tastes, they are exceptional - we can look at them all day. So, in the spirit of our avocation and some healthy downsizing, here is your chance to own ONE of them. Quite simply, as nice a 20th century modern landscape as we've seen. Enjoy
