Featured in this lot is this large, original framed oil on canvas done by renowned artist Jorge Braun Andres Tarallo (1951-Present). Jorge Andres Tarallo was born in 1951 in Montevideo, Uruguay where he studied at the National Arts School under the direction of the well-known artists Riveiro and Garino. In 1972, he came to the US to begin his career as a painter. Critics frequently comment on a Rembrandt influence in his landscapes and seascapes, but Braun describes himself as an impressionist painter concerned with realism. Braun paints the majestic southwest of America and faithfully renders the local Native Americans whose culture has always been intrinsically woven into the land. His Love of the land imparts to paintings a magical light which he captures in them lifts the viewer to the lofty heights he portrays. In all of his paintings there is a feeling of moisture, depicting the time around sunset when the twilight and dew of evening cling to the land melting into the atmosphere. This painting shows a portrait of a Native American man wearing a red cloth headband with two feathers sticking out of the side. He appears to be wearing a geometric patterned trade blanket of orange and brown colors. The man is staring towards the viewer with an almost melancholy look. The details in the mans face show Jorge Braun's amazing style, technique and attention to detail. The background shows dark red, orange and rust colors giving the man a good contrast against the background. The piece is signed in the bottom right hand corner reading, "Braun". This piece would make a fine addition to any collection. The art and frame show good condition with no signs of damage or wear. The art measures 36" L x 36" W. The entire piece measures 43 3/4" L x 43 3/4" W.
