An Orson Welles painting

Estimate
US$0
Price realised:
US$2,750
Beschreibung:

Original gouache on paper, signed ("Orson Welles") at lower right, a painting of an 18th century clergyman, possibly a costume design for a film or stage production, some loss to paint at upper margin, tipped to mount with archival paint, matted and framed. Orson Welles mastered every aspect of filmmaking, from writing to acting to directing; his creativity didn't end there, as he was also a talented artist who dabbled in oils, pen and ink, and watercolor, often illustrating his own Christmas cards or letters and giving his artwork as gifts. Overall: 22.5 x 16 x 1.75 in.; within mat: 14.5 x 8 in.
