Lot 190:
Description
A pair of large-scale decorative landscape prints on canvas, identified as Ancestral Beauty I and II after works by Williams. These Tonalist-inspired compositions depict atmospheric, misty countryside scenes featuring groupings of trees and rolling hills alongside a calm lake or river. The works utilize a palette of muted greens, earthy ochres, and dusky reds with softly blended, impressionistic details. Notably, the surface of the painting on the left displays a deliberate, factory-applied crackle or aged texture in the sky area to simulate an antique appearance. The canvases are stretched and housed in substantial, deep-profile wood frames with a dark finish and gilded, mottled distressing along the bevels and edges.
Height: approximately 41.5 inches.
Condition report:
The items appear to be in good overall condition. The frames exhibit intentional distressing as part of the decorative finish. No significant scratches, tears, or fading are visible on the canvas surfaces.
