Red to Black, 1954 Abstract Oil Mid-20th Century Modern Non-Objective. Published
By O. Louis Guglielmi
Located in New York, NY
Red to Black, 1954 Abstract Oil Mid-20th Century Modern Non-Objective. Published. Signed and dated upper left. 40 1/4 x 18 1/2 inches oil on canvas. Provenance: Estate of O. Louis Guglielmi. Robert Schoelopf Gallery. Andrew Crispo Gallery. Published in the artist's monograph as seen in the attached photos. BIO Painter O.
