"Neptune"
by the legendary New Orleans and New York artist Noel Rockmore.
This Classic work showcases Rockmore's rare and outstanding Pastel Portrait work....
"The God of the Sea " Neptune" was is captured by the artist, as he is, appearing in a New Orleans landscape..
By painting him in such a strong angle, Noel's focus for Neptune is his expression... dramatically stoic , and his grin...inviting.
Rockmore shows his very fine pastel work here, his textures and colors naturally nuanced and illuminated with silver white and golden sunlight, melting into shades of aqua blues...light and shadow perfection...
Lovely.
This is one of Noel's most beautiful and powerful originals...
the ultimate Rockmore for your exclusive collection.
Historically, it is believed that "Neptune" , the subject depicted in this painting... is the same Figure creayed by New Orleans' own Kern Studios...that was displayed at the entrance to the wonderful 1984 Louisiana World's Fair and Exposition..
Neptune is captured expertly by the artist, a few years after the Fair in 1987, as he was resting in a field on a sunny day on the banks of the Mississippi river in New Orleans.
