- 'Woman Standing', Modernist Sculpture, San Francisco Bay Area, de Young MuseumBy Wedo GeorgettiLocated in Santa Cruz, CAInscribed on base, 'W.G.' for Wedo Georgetti (American, 1911-2005) and created circa 1950. Acquired directly from the artist and accompanied by certificate of authenticity. Born in Italy, this California Post-Impressionist came to the United States at the age of one.
