Anatole Krasnyansky (Russian, 1930 - 2023): Musical Sphere. Lithograph on paper, signed in plate, unframed.

Anatole Krasnyansky, born in 1930, was a renowned architect and watercolorist in the U.S.S.R. before moving to the U.S. in 1975, where his art flourished. Initially known for traditional cityscapes, his style became more expressive, reflecting his new life in America. Krasnyansky pioneered an innovative technique that integrated paper texture into watercolor, expanding the medium's potential to rival oil painting in expressiveness. His deep understanding of architecture and various art forms has significantly influenced his distinctive and groundbreaking work.

28 x 27 inches with margins.
