Teimur Amiry. Fruit D'Été (Summer Fruit). An original oil on canvas by internationally acclaimed artist Teimur Amiry. A stunningly realistic still life of Bing and Rainier cherries, strawberries, and a peach sitting in a crystal bowl. Visible portion of painting is 13¾ x 17½". Matted and framed to an overall size of 21½ x 25¼".
Teimur Amiry is recognized throughout the world, especially in the U.S., Italy, France, Germany, and England for his modern Renaissance paintings. As a young man, Mr. Amiry travelled throughout Europe, spending most of his time in Italy where his work was lauded by the Italian media as the "Reinvention of the genius of Leonardi Di Vinci." He owned three galleries in Beverly Hills over a forty year period (Beverly-Wilshire Hotel, Rodeo Drive, and Beverly Drive). His many high-profile clients include Sophia Loren, Ringo Starr, Kirk Douglas, and Tony Bennett. Examples of his work were left in the estates of Howard Hughes, Frank Sinatra, Fred Astaire, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. Amiry's three dimensional images against dark velvety backgrounds are so real that they practically jump off the canvas. His trademark is a faint image of himself hidden somewhere in his paintings.
Estimated Value $40,000 - 50,000.
