About the Item

The city of Florence lies in the historic valley of Tuscany , Along the banks of the Arno river, surrounded by hills of scenic beauty ! Here during the first century BC , the conquering Romans established their ‘Colonia Florentina’, To settle the war veterans of Caesar’s army in Northern Italia ! But later after the fall of Rome , it became a battleground for the Holy Roman Empire and the Pope ; But the independent nature of its people refused foreign yolk ! They preferred commune rule led by a powerful leader – called the Signore , Just like the city-states of ancient Greece, in those days of yore ! But unlike Greece , Florence saw no Democracy , Since the Medici family finally usurped power in this city of Northern Italy ! Unlike Venice , Florence is landlocked and not a port city ; Relying on banking and trade to prosper economically . Their gold coin florin became the standard coinage throughout Europe ; While through the export of its quality textile and woolen goods, great wealth got secured ! But to become patrons of art and letters mere wealth is not enough , One must have a refined taste to become a true lover of letters and art ! And here the Medici carved out a niche for themselves under the Florentine sun ! :: Painting :: Impressionist :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: No :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: Lower right hand corner :: Watercolor Paper :: Portrait :: Original :: Framed: No

'Garden Entrance' - Architectural Watercolor Painting
By Mclean Jenkins
Located in Atlanta, GA
"Garden Entrance" is a watercolor painting featuring subtle hues of green, blue and yellow. This work is framed measuring 15.5 by 14 inches. McLean Jenkins is inspired by the work of JMW Turner, Richard Diebenkorn and Louis Khan. McLean Jenkins is a practicing architect and his work derives from and celebrates the classical forms of his trade. Working in graphite, ink and watercolor, McLean employs a gestural approach that frees his hand to explore a subject’s essence. His compositions rely on the quick, decisive sketch and are then given over to the whims and splashes of watercolor. Spontaneity, movement and spirit are all emphasized and his drawings collectively form their own narrative of his passion for architecture. The city of Venice has captured McLean’s imagination since his first trip there as a 12 year old boy. Over the years a kind of courtship with the city has evolved, and its impact has motivated and sustained his development as both architect and artist. His work depicting the city has been recognized within the architectural profession by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation in its award to McLean of the J. Neel Reid...
