About the Item

A stunning and luminous original painting by Mary Turnbull (American, d. 2010), titled “Come Wonder”. Executed in oil over 22k gold leaf on Masonite, this work shimmers with radiant color and layered textures, showcasing Turnbull’s distinctive ability to merge traditional gilding with modern painterly abstraction. The composition depicts a lush floral garden alive with vibrant blossoms and foliage, rendered in rich pinks, blues, greens, and yellows, all set against a glowing 22k gold ground. The use of gold leaf gives the work an ethereal, light-catching quality, transforming the floral imagery into a dazzling tapestry of color and brilliance. The painting is signed by the artist on the lower front and further signed and titled on the verso. Presented in its original ornate giltwood frame with linen liner, it remains an elegant and museum-quality piece. Mary Turnbull was a Los Angeles–based artist, remembered for her lyrical style and refined use of gold leaf. With her passing in 2010, her works have become increasingly sought-after by collectors of American 20th-century art, female artists, and gold-leaf painting traditions. This piece is not only decorative but also highly collectible, representing the legacy of an admired Californian artist. 🔹 Measurements Height: 33 in. (84 cm) Width: 26 in. (66 cm) Depth: 1.25 in.
