Print portrait entitled ?Eleanor?, originally painted by Frank Weston Benson 1862-1951
Born in Salem, Massachusetts, Frank Benson was a painter of impressionist seascapes and landscapes, often with figures posed by his wife and children, and also numerous hunting scenes. He spent most of his life in the seaport town of Salem and loved trekking through the countryside for his subject matter, especially wildlife. He is credited with making the American sporting print a distinct art form and for being one of the outstanding 20th-century wildlife printmakers.
Benson brilliantly captures the imagination in his skillfully conceived print entitled ?Eleanor?. The mastery of brushwork is captured in the print they way that he originally painted it and brings vibrant life to this image. Benson?s artistic skills use the intense light reflection off of the woman?s dress, and great detail can be viewed in the image in both the woman and the surrounding landscape. The incredible realism in the foreground plays with the viewer?s imagination. This very masterfully piece is complimented by a yellow gold frame, and is matted in a soft pink cloth double mat and has a gold trim edging the top mat that compliments the fantasy-like portrayal of this tremendous landscape. The framed painting measures a total of 28?x 25?. Signed in the bottom left corner, this painting would be a great addition to any art enthusiast?s collection and is remarkably priced.
