18 X 25 original watercolor painted in 1956, Bel'em Brazil:
signed Lower right corner seller: E-mail: sportthis (at) rocketmail.com.
I have
lots of paper work and letter written to a former owner about the
Bele'm, Brazil piece.
"Thank you for sending along the print of an [original] watercolor done
by me 38 years ago. The
location of it is, Bele'm, Brazil, near the mouth of the Rio Par'a, part
of the Amazon basin. It is easy
to find on the map. I was on assignment '56 for Varig Airlines, painting
some of the major stops.
Bele'm was one of them. I also managed to do a few things for myself. I
have another painting very
similar to it that I kept as a reminder of that trip. Since this is not
a subject that I would normally
paint today, and since it was also done 38 years ago when I was just starting
out and working in a
style somewhat different from the way I work today, it would not be of
interest to my galleries.
How it ever found its way to the open market is a mystery to me.
Thank you for
your interest in the
painting. Sincerely yours, Arthur Shilstone..."
