About the Item
A radiant and captivating original painting by Mary Turnbull (American, d. 2010), titled “Morning Sun”. Executed in oil over 22k gold leaf on Masonite board, this panoramic work exemplifies Turnbull’s signature technique of combining shimmering gilded surfaces with expressive floral imagery.
The composition presents a sun-drenched garden interior, with potted plants and cascading blossoms rendered in vivid reds, greens, yellows, and soft blues. The gold-leaf ground reflects natural light, heightening the sense of brilliance and warmth implied by the title “Morning Sun”. Shadows and sunlight play across the tiled floor, enhancing the dimensionality of the composition.
The painting is signed by the artist at the lower right and further signed and titled on the verso. Its original frame, finished in gold with painterly accents, complements the work’s glowing quality and provides an elegant presentation.
Mary Turnbull, a Los Angeles–based artist remembered for her lyrical garden-inspired works, passed away in 2010. Her paintings are increasingly recognized for their unique fusion of modern color sensibility with classical gilding traditions, making this piece an exceptional acquisition for collectors of American art, 20th-century floral painting, and works on gold leaf.
