About the Item

Miriam LaTour Shapiro Mardi Gras, 1997 Acrylic and mixed media Hand-signed by artist, signed in acrylic paint on the front Unframed (the work was removed from its original vintage frame, affixed to backing) Miriam Latour Shapiro began painting at the late age of 70 years old. The result was a remarkable series of works, including the present work, documented in a monograph by Colleen Becker called "Mysterious Late Excellence", a referring to that elusive quality that sometimes graces an older artist, as John Berryman wrote memorably of William Carlos Williams. The present mixed media work was a gift of the artist's daughter. It is reproduced in a full page in the catalogue "Mysterious Late Excellence" (shown), which features critical essays by Colleen Becker. Artwork: 52 x 32 x 1 inches Very good studio condition
