There’s GOLD in this here shop!!!! LOL!!! Anyone remember Looney Tunes… Yosemite Sam?? Ok, maybe I just dated myself… Oh Well!!! LOL… This is a STUNNING mixed media wall art collage signed & titled “Gold Rush.” It is a large scale or monumental piece bearing the Kinder-Harris Art label which indicates that it was done before Kinder-Harris was sold to JC Penny Company in 1992. It is signed however… we just can’t make it out! We have researched, messaged, & emailed but to no avail. Kind of looks like Rita Millat… kind of looks like R. Millat… (Robert?) Or… could be a P… or an N… (SIGH) Fancy signatures!! Anyway, since we can’t locate the artist we are selling this magnificent piece for its intrinsic decorative value and is priced as such. It presents attractive abstract elements beautifully composed of textured & torn paper, fabric, threads, paint, & metallic gold & copper details. It is triple matted bearing a thin gold inside edge & it’s encased in a superbly simple gilded wood frame. Talk about a GOLDEN TREASURE!!!!! And the wonderful concept of abstract art is that the perception of the piece is left to the imagination of the viewer! It is Contemporary in style and it will be gorgeous among your Art Deco Revival, Hollywood Regency, or Modern décor whether on a wall along a stairway, in an entry, in the master bedroom above your bed, in your living or family room, or mounted on a sizeable wall in your dining area. This breath-taking piece is full of fantastic colors, extraordinary textures, and exudes a fascinating abstract presence you are sure to love for years to come.
