About the Item
"Southernmost Point" from Kiraly's Florida Suite is a serigraph on paper, signed 'John Kiraly' lower right and numbered 72/250 lower left. The image size is 19 x 22.75 inches and the framed dimensions are 32 x 36 inches. From the total edition of 500 (there were also 200 Romans, 40 APs and 10 HCs.). Framed in a contemporary black frame.
Martin Lawrence Galleries is an affiliate of Kiraly's publisher Chalk & Vermilion Fine Arts. This print is therefore as new, with no prior ownership, coming straight from the publisher.
In Southernmost Point, John Kiraly captures the whimsical, sun-washed character of Florida’s tropical shoreline with a composition that feels both playful and serene. Set against a brilliant blue sky and calm horizon, the scene is filled with small details that evoke the charm of coastal life—shells arranged in the sand, coral and starfish drying in the sun, and a weather-worn structure that hints at local history and seaside stories.
Kiraly’s signature precision is evident in every element. The delicate rendering of conch shells, the crisp silhouette of a distant sailboat, and the movement of a golden fish-shaped kite drifting overhead all contribute to a sense of gentle activity within an otherwise peaceful moment. Soft pinks, warm neutrals, and vivid ocean blues create a palette that feels bright yet inviting, reflecting the relaxed spirit of the Keys and the surrounding Caribbean.
The composition is rich with visual rhythms: palm fronds sway above, shadows fall across the sand, and carefully placed objects lead the viewer’s eye toward the water. The handwritten “90 MI. TO CUBA” marking is a subtle nod to place—a reminder of the region’s cultural blend and its position at the edge of two worlds.
Like its partner piece from the Florida Suite, The House That Aloe Built, Southernmost Point celebrates simplicity, sunlight, and the everyday poetry of coastal living. The piece offers a sense of escape while grounding the viewer in the textures and colors of a real, lived-in place. Kiraly’s combination of meticulous detail and relaxed atmosphere makes this serigraph a captivating addition to any space seeking warmth, color, and a hint of seaside nostalgia.
John Kiraly (American, b. 1943)
New York–born and Florida-raised artist John Kiraly is celebrated for his lush, dreamlike visions of tropical architecture. Best known for the large-format serigraphs he created in the late 1980s and 1990s, Kiraly transforms verandas, pavilions and secret courtyards into immersive escapes filled with palms, orchids and cascading water. His meticulously crafted prints turn any interior into a sunlit terrace overlooking the sea.
Kiraly moved from New York to Florida as a child and later studied art at the University of Miami on a full scholarship, working under painters John Clinkenburg and Eugene Massin. Restless in the classroom, he left to travel through Europe, Central and South America before settling in the Bahamas, where he opened his own gallery and absorbed the saturated light and exuberant plant life that would define his mature work. In 1973 he relocated to Key West, beginning a lifelong exploration of tropical houses, gardens and waterfronts as his primary subject.
Throughout the 1990s, Kiraly developed an instantly recognizable style: crisp, idealized “tropical realist” scenes in which arcades, fountains and tiled terraces sit amid dense foliage and moonlit skies. Working in complex, multi-color serigraphy, he produced richly layered prints such as Celebration, Positano Moon, Temple of the Butterflies and Fortune Teller. These intricately printed limited editions have remained sought after by collectors who love Key West, the Mediterranean and other tropical destinations like Italian coastal towns, Carribean courtyards and lush Brazilian gardens.
Today, Kiraly’s work speaks directly to collectors who want interiors that feel like a permanent vacation. The generous scale of his serigraphs, their intricate detail and layered color, and their sense of cinematic escape make them ideal statement pieces for coastal homes, contemporary spaces in need of warmth, or anyone with a love of travel and tropical light. Each edition captures the atmosphere of a private paradise while offering the craftsmanship and scarcity serious collectors expect.
