Description
This is an extraordinary painting of a nude by Wallace Putnam, an artist of the modernists period, who was married to well-known photographer Consuelo Kanga. Wallace Putnam's works are the expressions of an exceptional, although under-appreciated genius. As with Van Gogh and others, one cannot view a Wallace Putnam painting without it touching the soul.
