Lot description
A vintage limited edition color print Summer in the Albany Valley by Jenness Cortez, American, born 1944. Signed in pencil lower right, numbered, 271 of 300, lower left. Matted and framed. Note: Jenness Cortez is a painter in the contemporary revival of classical painting. As a teenager, she took private lessons with Antonius Raemaekers, a Dutch-born painter whose early instruction continues to influence her work. She also studied for five years at the Herron School of Art, and then went to New York to study at the Art Students League with Arnold Blanch. Throughout her career Cortez has had a variety of subject matter including sporting and wildlife art, landscape, portraiture, interiors and still-life. Early in her career she worked as an editorial illustrator and etcher, then returned to her love of painting, with animals as her primary subject matter. For twenty years (1977-1996), she focused on horses--most notably, thoroughbred racehorses, and in the mid-1990s she moved from horses to landscapes, and then to cityscapes and at last to interiors and still life painting where her focus remains today. Jenness Cortez has been exhibiting her work since 1975, and has had more than 40 solo shows throughout the United States. Her work is in numerous public and private collections including those of the New York State Museum, Skidmore College, SUNY Empire State College, Presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, and HRH Queen Elizabeth, II.
