About the Item

It’s the eyes you notice first, almost photographically rendered in this portrait, and very reminiscent of a certain film star whose first name was Paul. There’s a rock-solid steadiness here that goes with managing a 100,000-acre plot of rangeland that’s been in the family for five generations. Along with it, there’s a certainty in the expression of long-held beliefs that predates the try-anything, swinging ‘60s. And beyond the distinctive structure and clarity of his face, everything else here blurs into the background. From the look of him, he’d fit right in on the cover of a romance novel. Did he ever exist in real life? Note: As per the fifth detail photo, this painting is signed on the lower left with the last name Klein and an indecipherable first name.
