Mary FaulconerAll Sewn Up (Trompe L'Oeil Superrealism Framed Modern Still Life Painting)1997
1997
About the Item
I was intrigued to find that Mrs. Paul Mellon (yes, that Mellon) was a collector of Mary Faulconer's work, and that a number of her paintings around this size had sold from the Mellon estate in 2014 for an average of around $1,800 each at AUCTION (wholesale)! (Pic included of auction record.) Part of that was surely the provenance. But at any rate - I like this one better than those, as it's the one example I have seen of her doing this much hard-core trompe l'oeuil - others might have a patch of imitated tablecloth or something like that here or there but not nearly this much detail. In this one, what appear to be collage of pieces of material are actually PAINTED - even though some have minute details that look impossible to reproduce accurately by hand. I am a painter myself, and I have no clue how an artist can have this level of patience. Check out the very-close-ups. Oil on artist's board. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee.

Still Life with Fruit and Flowers (Mid-Century Framed Impressionist Painting)
Located in New Orleans, LA
A lovely still vintage Impressionist still life that is almost all the way to abstraction, with the color passages around the fruit and flowers gently blending into one another. Comes framed, but I think it's worthy of a larger gold frame...
