About the Item
In “Pieces Of A Mystery,” George A. Gonzalez masterfully captures a scene of intrigue and fascination. The painting unveils a captivating still life composition, where a table is adorned with enigmatic objects that beckon the viewer to unravel their secrets.
At the heart of the composition lies a collection of artifacts: fragments of ancient bones meticulously arranged to form a puzzle of the past. Each piece holds a story untold, whispering secrets of civilizations long forgotten. Gonzalez’s attention to detail brings these artifacts to life, with every crack and weathered surface telling a tale of mystery and discovery.
Nestled among the bones are smaller objects, each hinting at a larger narrative waiting to be unveiled. A magnifying glass, positioned with precision, invites the viewer to delve deeper into the mysteries concealed within the tableau. Its presence adds an element of investigation to the scene, as if the viewer is invited to become a detective in unraveling the enigma presented before them.
Surrounding the artifacts are elements of the natural world: ripe fruits and a glass of wine, their presence contrasting with the antiquity of the bones. The rich colors and textures of the fruits add a sense of vitality to the composition, juxtaposing the timeless quality of the ancient artifacts with the ephemeral beauty of nature.
Through expert use of light and shadow, Gonzalez creates a sense of drama and depth, casting subtle nuances across the tableau and heightening the sense of mystery that permeates the scene. The painting beckons the viewer to ponder the connections between past and present, inviting contemplation of the mysteries that lie beneath the surface of everyday life.
“Pieces Of A Mystery” is not merely a still life painting but a captivating narrative frozen in time, waiting to be explored and interpreted by those who dare to unlock its secrets. Signed by the artist, this evocative artwork is a testament to Gonzalez’s skill in capturing the essence of intrigue and curiosity, making it a captivating addition to any collection.

Berninghaus (American, 1874-1952) "Winter Pasture" Oil on Canvas Unframed: 20 x 24 inches Framed: 25.5 x 29.5 inches Provo: Noonan-Kocian Gallery, St. Louis, Missouri, Dec. 23, 1954 (Copy of Original Receipt Included) * Will be included in Kodner Gallery's upcoming Oscar E. Berninghaus Research Project on the artist A founder in 1898 of the Taos Society of Artists, Oscar Berninghaus excelled at drawing animals and figures in contemporary garb in Southwestern landscapes. Many of his early paintings were Impressionistic, "suffused with color and light". (Gerdts 254) He was born in St. Louis, Missouri and developed an interest in art through his family's lithography business. He attended night classes at the St. Louis School of Fine Art. In 1898, he was on an illustration assignment for "McClure's" magazine, which took him for the first of many times into New Mexico and Arizona. He had heard of the special beauty of Taos and there met Bert Geer Phillips, who was already a resident, and Phillips invited him to return. This visit began a tradition of spending the winter months in St. Louis and the summers in Taos. He remained active in both communities, and for many years designed the costumes and floats for the Veiled Prophet parade, a famous annual event in St. Louis. He also did a series of western scenes commissioned by the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association to promote a manly, ruggedness theme in their products and to enhance their image as good Americans, an image that was being attacked by suffragettes. In this capacity and without visiting the area, Berninghaus did a painting titled "Old Faithful, Yellowstone" in 1914, which was used as a calendar illustration in the series. Berninghaus was a sketch artist for the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad to depict landscape of Colorado...Category
