Nahum Tschacbasov
Lovers and Others (unique mid century modern painting) - double sided artwork

1978

About the Item

Nahum Tschacbasov Lovers and Others (Two Unique Works), 1978-1979 Gouache on Two-sided Paper (Two Signed Works) Hand signed twice: once on each side 11 × 15 inches (each side) A rare, unique, original find for true art lovers - or, simply, for two lovers: two paintings for the price of one. It's unframed, but we recommend framing with an open back, so the painting can be reversed! Two Gouache paintings on one (double sided) paper. The verso (back) was completed and signed in 1978; the front work signed 1979. Tschacbasov spent two years creating this magnificent piece. The painting on the predominantly blue recto (front) is signed in black watercolor and dated lower right "Tschacbasov, 79" Gouache on the predominantly black and white verso (back) of the sheet, is signed in black watercolor, and dated "Tschacbasov, 78" Both unique works are done on one double sided sheet of watercolor paper. Recto in fine condition; minor foxing to the white area of the drawing on the back. This is a real find. Two important, impressive Cubist and Figural works on paper - a double sided gouache on one sheet, by the well listed artist Nahum Tschacbasov (1899-1984), who exhibited in the 1940s alongside Mark Rothko, Max Weber, Stuart Davis, David Burliuk and others.

  • Ozymandias (unique, signed Abstract Expressionist painting by renowned painter)
    By Ben Wilson
    Located in New York, NY
    Ben Wilson Ozymandias, 1989 Oil on masonite board Boldly signed by Ben Wilson on the back 36 × 48 inches Unframed Provenance: acquired from the Estate of Ben Wilson This work is titled "Ozymandias" after the famous sonnet written by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822). Shelley's poem is one of the most poignant meditations on the fleeting nature of human power and the inevitability of decline. The poem serves as a reminder that time erodes even the most imposing empires and leaders and that the pursuit of lasting fame and control is ultimately futile. Depending on how one views Ben Wilson's Abstract Expressionist painting of "Ozymandias" -- some of the imagery might reveal the head of an angry king and a sickle. Shelley's poem Ozymandias reads: I met a traveler from an antique land...
