"Spring
Eternal" is one of the most colorful scens of Texas Bluebonnets
that Robert W. Wood painted during his long career. The painting
dates to the early 1960s, when Wood was at the peak of his artistic
powers and fame. Depicting a broad field of Blue Lupin on one of
the old pioneer ranches in the Texas Hill Country, this work is
one of the finest wildflower paintings that Wood produced. In perfect
condition.

"West
Wind" is an exceptional marine by Robert W. Wood. Painted in
1954 , when Wood was at the peak of his fame, it depicts the crashing
surf on the shore of Laguna Beach. For this work the artist used not
only his brush but relied extensively on the palette knife. Obtained
from the family of the original purchaser, "West Wind" is
in immaculate condition, and is complete with its original, hand-carved
frame. |

"Snowcapped
Peaks" is an excellent mountain scene done in 1943, when Wood
was living in the art colony of Carmel. It has the vivid contrast,
crystal clarity and dramatic composition that were hallmarks of Wood's
finest works. In perfect condition, "Snowcapped Peaks" was
obtained from descendants of the original purchasers. |

This
beautiful work was painted in the rural Catskill mountain hamlet of
Woodstock, New York. It is an exceptional example of the type of autumn
scene that Wood was especially known for in the 1950s and 1960s. |

"Spring
Bouquet" is a colorful early Texas painting by Robert Wood. It
was painted about 1930 when Wood was establishing himself as a San
Antonio artist. This painting is unusual in that it has a broad field
of Lupin in the foreground and a contrasting lavendar field - most likely verbena - in the
center of the composition, with the "Golden Hour" light
illuminating the rolling hills of the Texas Hill Country. With the foreground in shadow and the rest of the painting illuminated by the late afternoon light, this is a particularly striking work, and one of the finest medium-sized Texas scenes that we have had over the past forty-five years. |
