This exquisite floral composition is one of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s spectacular representations of blue delphinium and yellow poppies.

In this poetic work titled "Two Nudes in a Landscape," Sterrer demonstrates his profound interest in landscape and portraiture, and the expressiveness of the forms within. ~ During TEFAF New York Fall, @agnewsgallery will showcase a captivating array of European paintings and sculptures.
