UnknownNude Free Woman in a Rocky Mountain Landscape1980
1980
About the Item
The painting reveals a nude woman, her aura exuding self-assurance. She stands upright on the rugged terrain of a rocky mountain. Her curly hair freely frames her face. The work is elegant, devoid of any hint of eroticism. Instead, it's a celebration of freedom, transcending society's taboos. There's a palpable absence of ostentation, evoking the liberating ethos of the 1970s, when society was shedding old norms and embracing new freedoms. In the distance, to the left, a small house attracts attention, prompting speculation: is it hers? Has she come all this way without clothes? Who is she?
The artist does not reveal the model's emotions. Her face is almost enigmatic. Is she there? Or is it a phantasmatic apparition, like a mirage revealed in the middle of the desert?
The painting’s technical precision is singular, reminiscent of a woven tapestry with contrasting elements carefully threaded in dense patterns. The vibrancy of colors and their flat tones add depth and texture, providing a visual experience similar to the warp and weft threads of a loom. The artist unites precise brush strokes and a vintage atmosphere to create a vital synergy that imparts aesthetic beauty and a trip back in time. In the distance, darker mountains appear, their peaks silhouetted against the blue sky, while the ground below seems altered, almost bleached white by the ceaseless passage of time and the seasons.
The painting is eligible, signed in the top right corner, and dated 1980. It sits in a hand-carved frame with a water-gilded panel made of genuine 22k gold. t. The back of the frame is stamped " RICHARD TOBEY - Los Angeles"
There is a label on the back of the frame reading: Barbizon.

- Figurative Nude WomanBy Coulton WaughLocated in New York, NYColton Waugh was a third generation American Artist. He was mostly known for his Marine paintings, still life paintings, and cartoons. As he attended the Art Students League, this painting may have been executed in one of his classes there being that it is a figure nude. This painting is a very rich celebration of color and texture. It can be noted that the artist was fond of using the pallet knife, and in this painting, we can see great executions of this. The brilliant contrasts are highlighted to great depth, as we can almost feel that this painting has a sculptural effect. This piece is truly inviting with beautiful details, as the figure is portrayed whimsically and gracefully. This painting is signed lower left and comes displayed in a wonderful gold tone wood frame. This painting measures 19 x 14 in Framed measures 24.25 x 19.4 in Coulton Waugh was born in 1896 in Cornwall, England. He was an American visual artist, son of maritime painter Frederick Judd Waugh, and his grandfather was the Philadelphia portrait painter Samuel Waugh. In 1907 his family moved to the United States, he grew up in Provincetown, Massachusetts and later made his home in Newburgh, New York. Over there Waugh was enrolled at New York's Art Students League where he studied with George Bridgman, Frank Dumond, and John Carlson. By 1916 Coulton was employed as a textile designer. In 1921 he moved to Provincetown, Massachusetts where he operated a model ship and hooked rug shop for 11 years. As a part of an artistic family, Waugh was a painter, comic strip artist and author. As he lived in New York he is often known for the artistic work in marine scenes, still life compositions and cartoons. Also was one of the main artists who worked on the famous “Dickie Dare” comics, created by Milton Caniff. He was working on the strip for more than 20 years, from 1933 until 1957, and there is where Waugh met his future wife, Odin, after hiring her to work on the strip as an artist and letterer. In 1945, he created “Hank” which only ran a short time. From 1947 on, Waugh divided his time between painting, teaching art and writing a seminal history of cartooning called “The Comics” in 1947 as a reference on the history of comics, which became one of the first serious examinations of the medium, as well as instructional books on cartooning and palette-knife painting. In Provincetown, he created other pictorial maps or decorative maps, including ones of Provincetown of 1924, Cape Cod of 1926 and Newburgh, New York in 1958. His map of California of 1948 was a collaboration with his wife Odin Burvik (Mabel Burwick). His paintings were displayed at New York's Hudson Walker Gallery, and he also was known for his pictorial maps and hand-colored lithographs, like the one exhibited of a Cape Cod map...Category

- Devil - Battle of Good and Evil - Nude woman Like Hieronymus BoschLocated in Miami, FLWill good ultimately triumph over evil? Or is it a perpetual tug of war? WPA Artist Leonard Lopez paints a complex figural work addressing the theme of "the fight between good and evil. It's reminiscent of the medieval paintings by Hieronymus Bosch, where demons evoke fear and confusion to portray the evil of man. In this painting, a closeup of a young female’s erotic buttock fills the horizontal space. Engulfing the sexy nude body is a dense array of Lilliputian-like figures. The top third of the composition is crammed with floating, sexy, nude female bodies. The bottom part of the painting features a cross-section of people engaged in their diverse jobs. Mounted on the nude cheek, Artist Leo Lopez paints a victorious Red Devil with a trident. He’s holding a wealthy man in a tuxedo upside down. The supernatural powers of the Devil's red forked tail extend beyond its normal length and, like a tentacle from a sea monster, entangles many of the characters that represent society. To the extreme center right Lopez paints a Winged Venus dressed...Category
