Sheila Benow

Noon

Sheila Benow's original etching and aquatint, "Noon" is fine, original example of her landscape art. Termed by one critic as "New Impressionism", Sheila Benow entirely reworked this plate from a preceding, unique etching entitled, "Dawn". The result is a brilliant examination of the effects of light within the same landscape.

"Noon" is an original embossed etching and aquatint published in New York by the "Associated American Artists" in the limited edition of one hundred and twenty impressions 1981. It is signed, dated, titled and numbered by Sheila Benow in pencil along the lower margin.
