About the Item
Johann Berthelsen and one of New York city’s best known artists along with Guy Wiggins, depicting the streets, parks and skyline of New York. When he first arrived in New York he gave operatic lessons by day and ventured out early in the evening to create Whistlerian nocturnes and tonalist views of the New York. He often depicted the East River and its bridges and this early pastel of blues and browns creates a nostalgic view of the magic of New York at dusk.

Head to Sea, Modernist sailing scene
By Ralph Eugene Della-Volpe
Located in Greenwich, CT
A vibrant and yet romantic sailing scene which was a favorite series by Della-Volpe. His compelling colorist approach has made his works desirable as he was one of the few artists post-war to be representative in style like Milton Avery and Wolf Kahn. Head to Sea has the hallmark intense and lovely coloration for which Della-Volpe is known. He came out of Abstract Expressionism in the New York school but then pivoted, like Milton Avery to representational, colorist work. The frame is a silvered gold leaf float frame of quality and has a rubbed, antiqued surface...
