About the Item

Ann Solomon Terminal at Gov. Island, c. Late 20th Century Oil on canvas 23 3/4 x 18 in. Framed: 27 5/8 x 21 1/2 x 1 in. Signed lower right This painting depicts a detail of the building facade in New York City's Seaport where the ferry to and from Governor's island docks. For many New Yorkers, the image is immediately recognizable. Ann's work over this period, from 1975 to present, includes drawings in diverse media and paintings in oils and acrylic, and water colors. Although her major love is landscapes, the human figure and still life are inspirational subjects as well. She has worked in art in her home in Sandwich, MA as well as Provincetown, Santa Fe, New Mexico, San Miguel D'AIIende, Mexico, Italy, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam and any location of inspiration, where she has produced a significant body of work. Her paintings and drawings exhibit a rare vitality and bold strength in drawing and use of color. Not an abstractionist, yet the design, pattern, and her use of media imparts an abstract, virility to her work. Since her senior thesis, "Landscapes of the mind", she continued to pursue interest in external landscapes as a vehicle to express interior landscapes expressed in personal symbols. Recent works include drawings and paintings in graphite, acrylic and oil paintings and monotypes. Ann has continued to purse her work in external landscapes as a vehicle to express interior landscapes, in personal symbols. Her recent focus has been a series of Buddhist monks. A recent trip to Asia has clearly influenced her recent work in monotype as well. Ann Solomon, painter and visual artist, from Newton, MA and educated at the Rhode Island School of Design and Fine Arts, BFA 1970. Ann studied art and painting in Italy while a student at RISD Honors Program and following graduation. Upon returning from Europe in 1970, Ann studied art therapy at the Hahnemann Medical College in Philadelphia. (Bio sourced from the artist's website)

Signed lower left: Bilson Bilson was born in Reykjavik, Iceland. At the age of five he moved to London, England, speaking Icelandic rather more fluently than English.
