Description
This is an uncommon early work by Lowell Nesbitt, who would later become famous for his large-scale pictures of flowers. A remarkably interesting lightly-abstracted image of a person. This impression was pulled by Nesbitt himself (as signified by the “Imp” written next to the editioning). This picture was matted and reframed in its original frame behind 99% UV-filtering art glass using strictly conservation-grade materials.
