Description

A friend of WXXI offers a drawing by Don Davey, 'Royal Street, New Orleans 1976.' The artist communicates his visual and emotional response to the old world atmosphere of this historic city, to share with the viewer his own intimate impressions. The viewer sees through the inner eye of the artist the tranquil beauty of the stately St. Louis Cathedral, the sun casting fragile shadows on wrought iron lacework, the sculptured textures of weathered old buildings and courtyards, and awakens visual memories of a visit so that the past, momentarily reborn, becomes the present. The image is matted in chocolate brown and framed in a silver tone frame. The frame measures 7 ? by 10 inches.
