Afternoon in Central Park, by Steven Quartly

A stone arch bridge crosses a still pond in Central Park, its curve and the surrounding trees mirrored in the water. Pink blossoms on flowering branches frame the foreground, golden and green foliage glows in the afternoon light, and a stately building and the hazy towers of Manhattan rise in the background.

Limited edition giclée on canvas, hand embellished, signed and numbered by the artist. Gallery wrapped and ready to hang, in two sizes: 56" x 70" and 40" x 50", each in a standard edition of 75. Every piece comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Steven Quartly painted this scene after a spring trip to New York to hear his children sing at Carnegie Hall. The city holds special meaning for him: the Art Expo there in the late 1990s was his first real introduction to the art world, and this piece begins a new series he had hoped to paint for years.
