Beautifully realized in sanguine, a ruddy chalk, this view of a North African cityscape dominated by a wide, tumultuous sky and a mosque with a large, low dome and high minaret, was drawn by Misha Reznikoff, a Ukranian-American artist.

"Nude Archer, " Bold Ink Drawing with Male Nude, Influenced by Klimt
By Erwin Stolz
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Bold and atmospheric, this ink drawing depicts a kneeling nude male figure, his bow arched and his arrow ready to spring forward, surrounded by a flower-bedecked landscape that clearly draws its inspiration from Gustav Klimt's work. To the left, silhouetted against the dark background, a pair of stylized geese -- evidently his target -- are shown flying upward. The sun which dapples the figure of the archer highlights his lithe musculature, and the artist -- Erwin Stolz -- gives the same close attention to the landscape behind. Stolz was well connected to the artistic elite of Vienna, and was friends with Alexander Rothaug...
