"The Return" Portrait of Ayatollah Khomeini 1979
By Dick Crispo
Located in Soquel, CA
Evocative pop art/fauvist treatment of the return of Ayatollah Khomeini to Iran by Monterey, California aritst Dick Crispo (American, b.1945). Presented in a mat. Signed and dated "D. Crispo 79" upper left corner. Image size, 29"H x 23"W. “I am an abstract journalist of the landscape and a choreographer of the dance of the mind, eye and hand.

An award winning artist, Crispo has studied at the Carmel Art Institute under John Cunningham and Sam Colburn...
