Vintage Original Framed "Once Upon A Springtime" 1981-1982 Acrylic on Board by Phyllis Londraville
A spectacular original framed acrylic painting on board by American artist Phyllis Londraville (1920-2002), titled "Once Upon A Springtime", dated 1981-1982. Londraville's work is known for featuring themes of the circus, dolls, puppets, animals and children, surrounded by nature in vibrant colors and wonderfully rich details. The more you look at this piece, the more fantastical details you discover. Even the liner is hand painted with beautiful harlequin pattern details. A remarkable one of a kind piece, originally purchased from the artists studio in California in the 1980's and shipped to a collector in New Jersey.
BIO: Phyllis Londraville created and became best known for her genre paintings, which were developed around themes related to children, the circus, kittens, dolls, puppets and flower gardens. The two major themes of her life were art and fantasy. Transfixed as a child by the overwhelming, colorful and swirling beauty of the Enchanted Toyshop, a ballet performed by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, Phyllis later wrote, "That long-ago enchanted toyshop has never really left my work. It is where I live much of the time as I paint, there in my imagination in a magic world where anything can happen, and puppets and dolls will always dance.". Born into a family of artists, Phyllis attended the Chouinard Art Institute, where she was awarded a scholarship.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. No damage or flaws.
Dimensions: 27" x 21" (including hand painted liner). Including frame: 29.75"H x 23 5/8"W
