Untitled

About the Item

Caviar20 is excited to be offering this elegant Tony Scherman landscape painting. Landscapes are a quite rare in the artist's oeuvre and they infrequently appear on the secondary market. Tony Scherman (b. 1950) is one of the most collected and cherished Canadian artists. He is renowned internationally for his work, typically executed in encaustic, a mix of wax and oil (one of the most difficult mediums to work in). Scherman frequently alludes to the grandeur of past centuries, both in his subject matter and his technique of painting with encaustic. The artist is continuing a tradition, of working with this material, that has been propelled through art history by a diverse number of canonical artists including Pieter Claesz, Caravaggio, and Cézanne. This exemplary work is marked by intricate layers of color and a richly textured surface creating an atmospheric Italianate landscape. A ring of trees commands the composition, their varied hues suggesting the transient shift of the seasons. They form a perimeter around a central pond, which mirrors the luminous shades of mauve and lemon from the commanding sunset above. The result is a dreamy, light-bathed composition with an ethereal glow. Scherman’s work can be found in nearly every public collection in Canada, as well as many international museums including LACMA (Los Angeles) and Centre Pompidou (Paris). Questions about this piece? Contact us. Visit our Toronto gallery on Thursdays or by appointment.

Pachter’s most cherished images take archetypes of Canadiana -- the barn, Queen Elizabeth, and the moose, -- and depict them with a distinct style, a fresh palette (and often through a humorous lens). “Mini Blue Barn...
