About This Print
A garden with a scattering of leaves fallen from the trees above. Gold leaf runs through the middle of the print, as well as the corner. Perfect condition. The print is currently framed with archival matting and museum-quality glass.
From The Collector
The second print I purchased. While viewing prints at the Fine Print Fair at the Cleveland Museum of Art, this piece was in the midst of the 'showcase' as Michael Verne, owner of Verne Gallery, displayed multiple large pieces and discussed the works.
I was actually a little nervous, as someone else was eyeing the print for a while, and this was my first 'big' purchase in the art world. But, I am the one who made it out with the print! It sits directly behind my desk in my office.
Provenance
Purchased from the Verne Gallery in Cleveland, OH.
