Unknown
About the Item
This striking oil scene depicts The Abduction of the Sabine Women, a tale from ancient Roman history. The accounts of Livy and Plutarch claim that after the city of Rome was founded an elaborate plot was made to steal the woman of the neighbouring town of Sabine, so that Roman lineage would prosper. When Sabine's men and their wives were invited to a summer festival, a signal from Roman ruler Romulus gave his men permission to seize the women and take them as their wives.
In this dramatic painting, Mann captures the chaos of the moment the women are taken. The desperate gestures of the women and struggle in the foreground are juxtaposed with the calmness of Romulus sitting on his throne watching the panic unfold.
Signed with initials to the lower right.
On canvas laid to board.

Teller 3
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
"Teller 3" Oil on Canvas presents a singular form and background in varying shades of green, blue, yellow and white and eart tones.
Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer.
Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries and museums and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur...
