Memories of Montreal, 1988. Pastel drawing.
Photo kindly contributed by Stephane Lavigueur, who says that "Stanley's work is still extremely relevant in 2014. Modern, contemporary, eco-friendly . . . he was really ahead of his time."
The Artist
Numbered edition 31/35
Original signature and date (I think) 1981
It is inscribed: "Montreal, May 5 2005. To Jeannette, with esteem and sincere friendship, Stanley Lewis"
"This print hangs in my sitting room. I love it because it is clearly a depiction of the artist himself working with an engraving scriber. The artist is angular whereas his subject, a woman, is curvy and rotund. Light from heaven seems to illuminate his thoughts, perhaps providing inspiration. I like to think that Stanley (who I never met) chose this image for Jeannette because their relationship was born in the heavens. That’s my thinking, anyway." Ivan Pope
