Item Details
By Hand
A limited edition serigraph by Charley Harper titled Burrowing Owl. The work depicts a nocturnal scene featuring a geometrically stylized owl feeding on a large yellow moth. The work is numbered in pencil 196/500, and signed in the lower right. It is presented matted under glass in a gold tone wooden frame. A piece of writing about the print by the artist is attached to the back, along with a hanging wire. Harper (1922-2007) was a beloved Cincinnati artist and conservationist, renowned for his minimal realism style. He was quoted as saying “I don’t try to put everything in, I try to leave everything out.” His work is delightfully laced with humor and sometimes includes short prose.
