Joseph DiGiorgio (American, 1931-2000). "Hudson Series" #1 and #2, lithographic diptych, 1985. Printers Proof 3 of 6 and Printers Proof 1 of 6 respectively. Title and Printers Proof numbers handwritten at lower left. Artist's signature and date handwritten at lower right. A monumental diptych presenting an enchanting Hudson River Valley landscape through artist Joseph DiGiorgio's modernist aesthetic. DiGiorgio draws the viewer in to experience the autumnal colors and the remarkable light effects of the landscape through his unique blend of Pointillism, Fauvism, and Photo Realism. Dot motifs as well as areas of flat color as well as elongated lines come together with vibrant hues to capture a moment in time in a place that inspired the Hudson River School artists during the mid-19th century, more than 100 years before DiGiorgio modernized their legendary visions. A transcendent diptych that conveys the beauty and sublimity of the natural world, mounted in an attractive custom frame behind plexiglass. Size (each sheet): 44" L x 30" W (111.8 cm x 76.2 cm)
