Description
Purchased straight from the Estate of Leonard Buzz Wallace. Painted by Wallace who taught and lectured on fine art at Orange County Community College, Middletown, NY through out the 1960-80s. Wallace's talent and output ranged from later large amazingly executed color field and abstract paintings to earlier figurative work. The haunting and moody row house tenement painting was possibly a local Middletown, NY working class neighborhood that he chose to depict in this canvas. Circa 1950.
