Featured in this lot is this framed original oil on canvas circa 1970s 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. The artwork shows a portrait of a Native American elder or chief wearing a headdress of feathers and white hanging ermine. Jorge Braun uses his amazing attention to detail to give the mans face a life-like look and years of work and wisdom. The background colors greatly contrasts the portrait of the man making him almost pop out from the painting. The painting is single matted with red velvet and shows good condition overall. The frame and painting show good condition as well. The art measures 23 1/2" L x 19 1/2" W. The entire piece measures 31 1/2" L x 27 1/4" W.
