About the Item

Jake Lee (1915-1991) Original Watercolor "Bandstand on the Bluff" c.1989 Wonderful original watercolor by listed California artist Jake Lee. Though untitled, we are calling this "Bandstand on the Bluff". The painting is signed and dated in the middle right just below the bandstand. Housed in a contemporary aluminum frame. Painting dimensions 12" x 12". The frame measures 22" x 22". Very nice condition. Jake Lee was born in Monterey, California on October 23, 1915 of Chinese parents. As a child Lee began painting scenes of the Chinese communities and the fisherman of Monterey. After graduating from San Jose State College in California, he studied at the Otis Art Institute and with Dong Kingman. His watercolors are a blending of occidental and Oriental techniques. By the early 1940s he had settled in Los Angeles, where he gave demonstrations at art clubs and taught at Brandes Art Institute. He died in Los Angeles on September 13, 1991.
