Nealon Mundt
"Anna" - Portrait of a Reclining Woman

1998

About the Item

Boldly colored portrait of a woman on a sofa by Nealon A. Mundt (American, 1939-2015). A woman is reclining on a dark blue sofa, with a pink wall in the background. The woman is wearing a white top and a pink skirt, with a red bandana on her hear. Her skin is rendered in a fauvist style, mixing bold yellows and greens with skin tones. There are paintings hanging on the wall behind the sofa. Signed and dated in the lower right corner. Titled, signed, and dated on verso. Presented in a wood frame with a linen fillet. Canvas size: 24"H x 36"W Nealon Mundt (American, 1939-2015) graduated from Menlo Atherton High School in 1958, served at home in the U.S. Army, and majored in History at U.C. Santa Cruz. Retired, he had worked for the County of Santa Cruz, as an English teacher in Tokyo and Rome, in Italian films doing acting and voice-over roles, and as a local artist and photographer. Encouraged by his mother Annette, Nealon early on displayed a talent for drawing, painting, and music. In his teens, she accompanied him on a life-changing tour of Europe, engendering his love of art, photography, cinematography, ancient history, languages, and world travel. He spent his life in pursuit of these passions, living in Rome, Italy for many years and travelling extensively throughout Europe, the Middle East, Turkey, India, and Central America. He was an avid collector of fine art, oriental carpets, coins and stamps. Nealon was happiest tromping around ancient ruins, surrounded by exotic sights and sounds.
