This lot includes an Original Signed Oil on Canvas, "The Mission" by Roger Lundskow. Lundskow was primarily influenced creatively by the 1950s. Abstract Expressionism prevailed in the 1950s as a primary method of painting, and explored ideas concerning the sublime and spirituality. Artists chose to focus on painting's formal properties, and Action Painting took inspiration from the political freedoms of the United States, in opposition to the strictures of the Soviet bloc. During the Post War period, NYC became the global focus for Modernism, and many European artists provided inspiration for American artists, and influenced cultural growth in the United States for many subsequent decades to come.
