Wyeth Family. Signatures. In this wonderful lot of five, we are proud to offer signatures from America's first family of art. Newell C. Wyeth's bold signature has been matted with one of his book illustrations. Two Andrew Wyeth signatures; one matted with a print of "Helga - Crown of Flowers" and one (partially smudged) on the Time Magazine cover featuring his portrait (painted by Henrietta Hurd Wyeth) are included in this lot. Jamie Wyeth's signature appears once on the Time Magazine cover featuring his Jimmy Carter Man of the Year portrait and on a print of the same portrait. All of the items have been matted and are in very good to fine condition.
Instantly recognizable, the remarkable works of the Wyeth dynasty have a lasting impact. Whether the dramatic illustrations and landscapes of N. C. Wyeth, Jamie Wyeth's remarkable realism or Andrew Wyeth's unmistakable use of stark images, earth tones, light and realism, their art is part of the national consciousness.
Estimated Value $250 - 300.
