Andrew Wyeth Signs His Iconic “Christina’s World” Print
Andrew Newell Wyeth (/ˈwaɪ.ɛθ/ WY-eth; July 12, 1917 – January 16, 2009) was an American visual artist, primarily a realist painter, working predominantly in a regionalist style. He was one of the best-known U.S. artists of the middle 20th century. In his art, Wyeth’s favorite subjects were the land and people around him, both in his hometown of Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and at his summer home in Cushing, Maine. Wyeth often said: “I paint my life.” One of the best-known images in 20th-century American art is his painting Christina’s World, currently in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. This work executed in tempera was painted in 1948 when Wyeth was 31 years old.
“Christina’s World” print signed by its artist Andrew Wyeth. The American painter’s work has come to be regarded as a modern art icon, the original showcased at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Wyeth’s signed dedication appears in blue felt tip on the image’s border at the lower left. The realist painter’s neighbor Christina Olson is the subject; a survivor of polio, she moves across the barren land as best she can, her weathered house and barn in the distance. Her head, however, was based on that of Wyeth’s wife Betsy. The buildings are actual structures in Maine that have been turned into a museum due to the popularity of this 1948 piece. Matted and framed in wood that suggests the boards of the house and barn, to an overall size of 34.75″ x 26.5″. Tearing to the frame’s paper backing, else fine. Sold for $2,148.
