About the Item

Lithograph in colors on vélin paper. Paper Size: 13 x 17 inches. Inscription: Signed in the plate and unnumbered, as issued. Notes: From the folio, The Four Seasons, Paintings and Drawings by Andrew Wyeth, 1962. Published and printed by Art in America Company, Inc., New York, 1962. Excerpted from the folio, In 1962 the editors of Art in America proposed to Wyeth a portfolio of images of his recent dry-brush drawings. The artist and his wife suggested the theme, "The Four Seasons," because of the essential role played in his work by the cycle of the seasons. The drawings were selected by Andrew and Betsy Wyeth from works in the house and studio at Chadds Ford, supplemented by some owned by friends. With a few exceptions they had never been exhibited or reproduced. The plates were made directly from the originals. In these drawings Wyeth's loving concentration on the object is fully revealed. But as always in his work, this concern with the tangible is balanced by sensibility to mood, to the emotion arising from the actual. They are pervaded with a sense of the season-the exact time of year, the hour of the day, the quality of the light. To the truth and subtlety with which he captures these intangible factors, these drawings owe their poignant poetry. Each has its individual mood. The thin sunlight and faint warmth of early spring in Spring Sun, the stir of returning life in New Leaves, the full flowering of spring in Quaker Ladies. A summer morning's sea fog in Burning Off, the drowsy ripeness of August in The Berry Picker. The serene melancholy of fall in Teel's Island, the lingering golden light of Early October. Finally, the white hush of snow, transforming the familiar world, blanketing the cold earth beneath which the seed sleeps. *As the seller, we agree to pay any tariff on behalf of the buyer.

ANDREW WYETH (1917-2009) was an American visual artist and one of the best-known American artists of the middle 20th century. Though he considered himself to be an "abstractionist," Wyeth was primarily a realist painter who worked in a regionalist style, often painting the land and people of his hometown in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania and his summer home in Cushing, Maine. His father, the illustrator and artist N. C. Wyeth, was a key member of the Brandywine School of artists and illustrators. N.C. Wyeth gave Andrew art lessons as a child, during which he developed the skills to create landscapes, illustrations, figures, and watercolor paintings. His influences included the landscape artist Winslow Homer, American philosopher and naturalist Henry David Thoreau, and filmmaker King Vidor. Wyeth's wife, Betsy, managed his career and was a strong influence in his work. His son Jamie Wyeth is also an artist. One of the best-known images in 20th-century American art is his 1948 tempera painting Christina's World, which is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. He is also known for The Helga Pictures and his paintings of windows. In addition to being awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 1988, Wyeth was the first painter to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the first American artist since John Singer Sargent to be elected to the French Académie des Beaux-Arts. In 2022, Andrew Wyeth's painting, Day Dream, sold for $23.29 million USD at Christie's New York, setting a world record for the artist.
