About the Item

In this painting, Robert Richter depicts a view of a park during the winter months, the image dominated by the massive form of a leaf-bare tree. The skeletal form of the tree resembles the network of veins within a leaf, calling to the renewal of the summer months ahead. The painting works as a counter-image to Richter's 'High Summer,' also available from the David Barnett Gallery, showing a similar view of a massive tree bushy with foliage. Whereas many of his paintings use deep and richly saturated color, here he treats the landscape more delicately, using a monochrome of yellow ocher to tone the bright white of winter. 48 x 36 inches, painting 55 x 43 inches, frame Titled, dated, signed in pencil & stamped with initial on verso Housed in a frame of the artist's design and construction Born in Milwaukee, Robert Richter has been painting from the age of eight. His unique paintings are hand carved on wood as well as hand carved frames that become an integral part of the paintings. The artist comments, “I want my paintings to be stunning from across the room, to beckon, as all good paintings should. And then close up, what a surprise!” The artist lived in New York where he painted literally everything from stage sets to mural commissions. He painted store front windows, lithographs from aluminum plates for actors, T-shirts, costumes, curtains, wall hangings, furniture and floors. His unique experiences, intellect, extraordinary color sensibility result in a stunning style with flavors of Avery, Grant Wood and Matisse, but mostly himself.
