LOWELL NESBITT (USA, 1933-1993): "Three trees", signerad och daterad L. Nesbitt, olja på duk.

ca 203x205,5 cm 80x80 inches LOWELL NESBITT A painter and printmaker best known for his vivid and unique depictions of flowers, Lowell Nesbitt created floral works characterized by their monumental scale and vivid realism. Petals nearly fill the canvas, isolated in space and set against either monochromatic or patterned backgrounds. The artist started his career creating abstract works but began to depict specific subjects such as shoes, dogs, empty studios, building facades, and interiors in the early 1960s at the suggestion of Robert Indiana. Although his style was often described as photorealistic, Nesbitt himself objected to the term; rather, his work is more loosely painted and ambiguous than it generally implies. In 1980, the United States Postal Service honored Nesbitt by issuing four stamps based on his floral paintings.
