About the Item

"The Wave" Abstracted Seascape in Oil on Canvas Bold and textured abstracted seascape by Robert Frame (American, 1924-1999). This piece has a high horizon, with a thin strip of sky above the water. A huge wave is crashing in, with the crest rising high above the shore. The beach is rocky and somewhat chaotic, with a variety of colors. Signed "R. Frame" in the lower left corner. Titled and signed on verso "The Wave" Robert Frame Gallery tag from Esther Robles Gallery affixed to verso. Presented in an off-white wood slat frame. Frame size: 24.5"H x 48.5"W Image size: 24"H x 48"W Robert Aaron Frame (American, 1924-1999) began his art career in the mid 1940's. He attended Pasadena City College, Pomona College in Claremont, and from 1947 to 1950 under Henry Lee McFee. Frame received several awards in the late 1940's and early 1950's, among these were awards from The National Academy of Design in New York and the Pasadena Art Museum in California. His group showings include San Francisco Museum of Art, DeYoung Museum, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Phoenix Museum of Art and many others. Frame taught art at Santa Barbara City College from 1966 until 1986. Frame often began a work by sketching an architectonic form that provided the painting with a solid compositional base. He would then proceed to develop spontaneous imagery within these forms. In this way, Frame built his works to result in paintings of strong design and fluidity.
