A shimmering landscape done in pastel shades of yellow, purple, blue, and green. The scene depicts a farming field, along with surrounding vegetation, and the suggestion of two homes in the distance. The use of color in this painting evokes the tropical feel present in much of Rene Clark's work.
On the occasion of Rene Clark's exhibition at the Society of Illustrators in 1956, an article about him was published in the magazine American Artist, subtitled "An appreciation of an artist who, for more than forty years had a profound effect on advertising art and, over the same of years, has also practised [sic] independent painting in watercolor." Condition: Generally very good, the colors bright, with only minor toning, wear, soft creases. Inventory number verso. |
