拍品专文

The subject of this painting draws on Howard Finster's early and enduring interest in natural disasters. Created before Finster dated or numbered his pieces, the intricate detailing and outlined lettering of this work are painstakingly executed and in delicate contrast to the simplification and bold colors of his later output.
