About the Item

Acquired from the estate of a Dallas-based illustrator, this wonderfully painted gouche on corrugated paperboard maintains the perfect balance of casualness and luxuriousness that feels so good in so many interiors. Whether it's Southern Classic, with an Eastern Seaboard feel, or a New York City brownstone that sets the bar for editorial publications, the piece is a welcome addition. The quick marks and slow strokes come together to create a sense of sophistication, yet a definitive feeling of inviting warmth and comfort. Rendered in black and white paint on natural paper, the New York City view of the Hudson river along the West Side, with sailboats and layers of buidings in a luxurious giltwood frame is a unique piece ready to be featured above an entry piece with a great lamp, small vase of fresh flowers and a pretty bowl. 32.25”W x 26.25”H (frame) 23.38”W x 17”H (painting)

James C. Borden Large Cityscape Street Scene Watercolor Painting Cerused Frame
By John Dean Monroe Harvey
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Absolutely masterful watercolor street scene painting by James C. Borden (1928-2013). Prepare to be awestruck when you lay eyes on this exquisitely detailed watercolor painting by James Borden. The modern painting depicts an ethereal urban scene crowned with summer light. The scale itself is impressive at over four feet wide and three feet high (50.75? x 36.675?). There is just so much to see, so much texture, so many layers. Borden has truly mastered his medium. This is a watercolor cityscape on paper, housed in a cerused wood frame and protected by a pane of acrylic. The painting’s vibrant colors have beautifully preserved. The mastery of this painting is unreal. Borden’s orchestration of color leads the eye through the painting with late afternoon sunlight carving a path through an otherwise gray urban interior. His use of color is narrative. The viewer is being teased away from gloomy city life with a glimmer of sun and nature on the horizon. The nuance in his layering, through elevated passages of transparency… simply brilliant. Be sure to spend time with this painting. There is more to see each and every time you look. Did you notice the Easter egg? Borden used his name as the sign on one of the buildings on the left. The painting is pencil signed “Jim Borden.” James C. Borden studied at the School of the American Academy of Art in Chicago and was a life long painter. Mr. Borden spent much of his life in South Bend...
