Re: mm 1192
I was going to say that it looked a lot like Milton Avery... but that's only because it IS by Milton Avery!

Milton Avery
Seaside Strollers
1963
http://www.ackland.org/art/exhibitio...ton/avery.html

He's actually quite an under-rated artist. In a way he reminds me of Morandi, quietly continuing to do what he loved regardless of the direction of the larger "art world":



Quite a beautiful colorist... and a delicate Matisse-ian sensibility.

I guess that's why he's known as the "American Matisse"! I agree that he is underrated. He's also interesting because he was an influence on artists like Rothko and Gottlieb.

...and Vuillard-esque

Some of the works shown here, realy does reflects Rothko's remarquable colours.

I love Morandi a lot ... tranquility, slow-progression and continuity
