About the Item

Gail Packer (American, 1945-2008), "Vineyard at Geyserville II", color etching on paper, pencil signed, titled and numbered "A.P." lower margin, matted and framed under glass, This artwork is an aquatint titled Vineyard at Geyserville II by Gail Packer, as indicated by the inscription and the artist's signature. Aquatint is a printmaking technique, similar to etching, that produces areas of tone through the use of a porous ground that resists acid. The piece depicts a detailed landscape of a vineyard, set in the rolling hills of Geyserville, California, with a focus on rural architecture and pastoral scenery. In the foreground, the artwork features a decorative band depicting white geese beneath a row of trees, adding a charming narrative element to the landscape. The illustration is bordered by the footprints of geese adding an additional element of whimsy. The hills and the sky in the background offer a rich interplay of colors and textures, typical of aquatints' capacity to capture fine gradations in tone and detail. The frame is hand-painted and likely created specifically to complement the colors and themes of the artwork. The names and dates “Hildy 1985” and “Lois 1989,” on the frame may be references to specific geese. This print is marked "A.P." in the lower margin, indicating it is an Artist’s Proof, a small edition traditionally reserved for the artist's personal use. Artist’s Proofs are often considered more valuable by collectors due to their limited availability. This combination of hand-painted framing and the aquatint technique suggests this piece is not only a collectible print but also a thoughtful integration of artistic elements that increase its uniqueness. Note: This work will be professionally packed at the sellers expense by an expert service. This allows the work to be sent via UPS/USPS at a cost significantly less than white glove service.
