About the Item
"Plato Crater" watercolor on paper 47.5"x27" Signed on reverse by the artist.
This large-scale watercolor on paper depicts the lunar surface of the moon in a greyscale with deep shadows and articulated highlights in a photo-realistic manner.
Plato is the lava-filled remains of a lunar impact crater on the Moon. It is located on the northeastern shore of the Mare Imbrium, at the western extremity of the Montes Alpes mountain range. In the mare to the south are several rises collectively named the Montes Teneriffe. To the north lies the wide stretch of the Mare Frigoris. East of the crater, among the Montes Alpes, are several rilles collectively named the Rimae Plato.
Plato has developed a reputation for transient lunar phenomena, including flashes of light, unusual color patterns, and areas of hazy visibility. These anomalies are likely a result of seeing conditions, combined with the effects of different illumination angles of the Sun.
