Lowell Nesbitt (1933-1993)

You are bidding on a limited edition, signed print (#124/200) of "Green Orchids" by Lowell Nesbitt.

Lowell Nesbitt was born in Baltimore, Maryland in October 1933. He started to paint seriously in Washington D.C., during the late 50's and continued to paint and make prints until his death in 1993 at age 59. Nesbitt has successfully tackled many subjects: landscapes, nudes, ruins, caverns, and flowers. Nesbitt, who has been painting giant flowers since 1964, removes their usual context of devastating sentimentality so that their peculiar beauty is again visible. Lowell Nesbitt exhibited frequently in both the United States and Europe and is represented in many public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
