This is a great piece. I recently acquired an excellent collection of original mid century James Russell Sherman paintings of New York. I am offering a couple of them this week. A great chance to add some incredible New York paintings to any collection. For those not familiar with the artist, I have included his biography below. This is a wonderful view kids playing baseball in Central park in New York City. Watercolor and gouache on paper laid on archival substrate. Painting measuring 11 3/4 x 18 inches. Signed lower right. Titled verso as well as the artist's address in Colorado. Really just an outstanding view of New York City. Painting is hinged into backing and is unframed. Ready to be framed. Make sure you check my store for the other Sherman New York works I am offering.
For those not familiar with the artist, his biography from askart reads: "Born in Maxwell, Iowa, Sherman grew up in Colorado where is father was a wheat grower and rancher. Sherman's interest in drawing took him to Kansas City in the 1920's where he studied at the Art Institute. Following graduation from the Kansas City Art Institute he traveled to New York City where he attended the Art Students League and met Thomas Hart Benton. Sherman subsequently studied both drawing and painting with Benton. During his art career Sherman exhibited at the 1939 World's Fair, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Library of Congress, the Denver Art Museum and numerous Galleries in New York City."
