Description
Sheldon C. Schoneberg (1926-2012) - Oakland Evermore. Original colour lithograph on wove paper, 88.6 x 60.5 cm. Signed in pencil by the artist lower right. Condition BA-: two foxing marks in the margin and a small marginal tear that does not affect the subject. This work is representative of the humanist and figurative style of Schoneberg, an American artist renowned for his mastery of drawing and his sensitive approach to portraiture and the human figure. In "Oakland Evermore", he uses a composition in which the line, both fluid and precise, captures a deep emotion, underlined by a palette of colours that is often nuanced and atmospheric. His work, which follows in the footsteps of the great classical artists while incorporating an expressive modernity, focuses here on a poetic and timeless presence. The imposing format allows us to appreciate the artist's technical virtuosity and the richness of the lithographic textures. Despite the slight defects in the margins inherent in the ageing of the paper, the work retains all its visual power and artistic integrity. This is a collector's item that testifies to the elegance of the brushwork of this Californian master, whose works can be found in numerous international museums.
