About the Item

"Leopard Dreaming" - Fantasy Lithograph in Ink on Paper Bold lithograph of a leopard by Carol Jablonsky (American, 1932-1992). A leopard is depicted in a fantastical, surrealist manner, with symbols in the surrounding areas. The leopard appears to have two faces, one of which looks human. Above the animal's back are bubbles containing images of animal-human hybrids dancing, playing musical instruments, and flying. Numbered, titled, and signed along bottom edge: "265/300 Leopard Dreaming Jablonsky" Presented in a vintage wood frame with gold accents. Frame size: 21.75"H x 23.75"W Image size: 11.75"H x 13.75"W Born in Port Washington, New York in 1939, Carol Jablonsky (American, 1939-1992) studied art at Boston University; Art Students League, New York and Institute Allende, Mexico. Her works were exhibited through out the U.S. and Mexico, including the El Paso Museum of Art, Galleria San Miguel de Allende, Mexico and National Society of Painters in Casein, New York. Her mediums were etchings, watercolors, casein tempera paintings, lithographs and drypoints and were typified by delicate colors and imaginative characterizations. She devoted many hours of painstaking research to each image, drawing upon a wide variety of sources, including medieval book illuminations and sculpture, Roman frescoes, the Bible, astrology, Oriental philosophies and American and English literature. The resulting imagery had intense symbolism that belied its simplicity. Her works encompassed a variety of subjects, including the mythological character Pegasus, creatures from a medieval bestiary, and the story of Moses. Between 1975 and 1979, Jablonsky devoted herself to a project based on the theme of the Garden of Eden. Her involvement in creating different images on this subject was so intense that she said, "real time seems to have no relationship to working time." Her efforts resulted in 22 watercolors, 25 casein tempera paintings and a portfolio of 11 original lithographs elucidating her interpretation of Eden.
