The most sought after subject of all Leroy Neiman and it happens to be an Artist Proof as well which were made before they did the number editions . So these are more valuable than a numbered serigraph.
This Leroy Neiman work of art, is from the private estate and collection of Mrs. Vaunna Dardenne. The piece is titled: "ELEPHANT NOCTURNE" Artist Proof, serigraph, originally hand signed by Leroy Neiman. It was originally purchased from Bowles/Hopkins(later known as known as Bowles/Soroko gallery) and currently known as Franklin Bowles Galleries, in San Francisco, California. This location is key; it is where Leroy Neiman, spent time painting, sketching, greeting guests, and talking about his current and future works of art. A transfer of title, written by the previous owner (1993) an Attorney, accompanied with the gallery sticker on the back of the frame, and the cashed check for purchase.
The "Elephant Nocturne" is the most coveted of Neiman's work. This is a Limited-Edition Serigraph and also, is a sought-after Artist Proof which only 80 exists. It is also hand signed by Leroy Neiman. The art work is framed (frame has a few minor scratches) and protected with UV- protected glass. The size with frame is: 51 by 42 by 3 inches, weighing approximately 20 lbs.
Mrs. Vaunna Dardenne, had a collection of nine works of art from Leroy Neiman, as she would frequent (At that time) the Franklin Bowles gallery in San Francisco, California; over the many years she became to know him personally. Leroy Neiman was usually present at Franklin Bowles gallery and enjoyed greeting guests, and talking about his up-and-coming new projects.
As her daughter, I was introduced to Mr. Neiman when I resided in California, over the years when I visited the city; I joined my Mom to meet with Mr. Neiman on five occasions, including, enjoying lunch and an Irish coffee at the Buena Vista Cafe. less
