INFO ABOUT THIS AUCTION</font></b><font size="2">

This item is in an "eBay Live Auction". This means that
each item: <b>1)</b> will not close at a specific time like an
ebay.com auction, <b>2)</b> will be opened in order in a format
like a real auction house floor, <b>3)</b> bids can be placed
real-time during the auction. Please note, bidders may place bids
before the auction (aka absentee bids). Absentee bids may be placed
up to 1 hour prior to the start of the auction. This is the recommended
method of bidding since many people on "auction day"
either forget to participate in the auction or have other plans.
Once the auction has started only live bids are accepted.

Note: The "Auction date and time" displayed by ebay
is the START date and time of the auction. This has nothing to
do with individual items. We run approx. 150 items per hour so
you can estimate from that when your item may be displayed. Also,
for Mac users, there are known issues with the Live Auction bidding
console and the Safari browser. Please use a different browser
if you wish to participate in the Live Auction.</font></font></p>
<p align="left"><font color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">You
must register for each individual auction before you can bid whether
you have participated before or not.<b> To ensure that your registration
has been completed, you should register at least an hour before
the auction starts.</b> If you register during the auction, it
may take up to an hour before you are confirmed.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">For
<b>Payment information</b>, please see the "Payment"
section below.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<b>*** ALL ITEMS IN THIS AUCTION HAVE RESERVES ***</b> The auctioneer
will act to protect the reserve by placing an "Auction Floor
Bid". These bids will be displayed during the auction and
in eBay's Bid History after the auction as an "Auction Floor
Bid".</font></p>

</font></strong>This painting is truly a unique find in our present day, as painting on velvet was an extremely popular medium roughly 30 years ago, during the 1970s. In Black Velvet Artist, a booklet written by Pamela Liflander in 2003, the history of this distinctive art form is expounded upon. ?The birthplace of black velvet paintings can be traced to ancient Kashmir, which is considered to be the fabric's original homeland. These paintings were religious in nature, portraying the iconic artwork of the Caucasus region by Russian Orthodox priests." She further wrote that Marco Polo and others introduced the West to this art form, and that some of these early works still hang in the Vatican. Of course, her book wouldn?t have been complete without mentioning Edgar Leeteg (1904?1953), "the father of American black velvet kitsch,? for which he became quite famous.
?Velvet Still Life? is an original oil painting of a collection of objects on a velvet surface, just as the title suggests. The variety of items on the table ranges from fruits and vegetables to candles and cloth. This wide assortment creates a visual interest that allows the viewer?s eye to roam the painting, exploring its depths and secrets. While some may see these objects as being randomly placed, the composition has a nice configuration to it that flows across the surface. Speaking of which, the velvety surface is an exceptional way of creating deep and impenetrable shadows that create an air of mystery. The black is so complete ...
