Wonderful etching print in a gold gilt frame by John Silk Deckard, signed.
Artist Bio:
John Silk Deckard (1938 – June 7, 1994) was an American artist from Erie, Pennsylvania. He worked in a number of media, including drawing, painting, printmaking, and sculpture.
Deckard studied art under Joseph Plavcan, also from Erie. He studied with Plavcan until the age of 17, at which point he earned a scholarship to attend the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia. He also studied at Edinboro State College, Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. He began his career with making prints, and it was in this medium that he first began to explore the recurring themes that would appear in his work throughout his career: alienation, sacrifice, and powerlessness.
