Original Artist Proof Etching "Spring Sowing" by Jorge Sendra
Item Details
An original artist proof of an etching with aquatint and embossed paper titled Spring Sowing by Jorge Sendra. According to the consignor, this unknown artist, Sendra (1930-2004) was born in Barcelona but died in California. The Spanish artist’s early work was inspired by the school of nature that inspired many Catalan painters at the end of the 19th century, the peasant world of realities. His work is based on a very subtle spectrum of lines and negative spaces and avoids anecdotes. The brevity of his lines purifies, lightens, condenses, and engenders his poise and harmony. He was greatly influenced by Mexican artists Ricardo Martinez and Francisco Zuniga and Native American artist RC Gorman. His work is in the private collections of Mr. and Mrs. Francisco Fuster de la Riva (VP Banco Exterior of Spain) and Lee Fisher (Motion Picture Art Director). The image depicts three female figures planting seeds into the ground. The print is numbered (A/P) to the lower left and signed lower right. It is presented behind glass in black frame white and grey double matting; read to hang.
