"Crash" Large Scale Watercolor on paper

2017

About the Item

watercolor on paper, 51"x72" This large scale watercolor on paper depicts a crystal chandelier that appears to have crashed to the floor. Small birds perch on the light and on the ground. This creates a narrative that perhaps the birds have caused the crash of the light. A gorgeous example of Broadbent's work, this painting is signed on reverse by the artist. Please inquire about framing options. Thomas Broadbent has shown extensively throughout the U.S. as well as internationally.
