Pastel Drawing of a Lake Scene
Item Details
A pastel drawing on on paper. This piece depicts a shallow lake with tall grasses growing out of the water with moss and lily pads gathered in large clusters on the surface. The water is dark and reflective where it’s deeper, and rocks can be seen through the surface in the shallower areas. This piece tows the line between drawing and painting, with the surface smoothed and worked over with brushing after the initial drawing was done. It is signed illegibly to the lower right corner and presented behind a layered mat and glass in a painted wood frame with wire to the verso for hanging.
Condition
- water damage to the backing; scratches to the frame; accretion to surfaces.
