Oil on board, 2007, signed 'Richard Estes', titled and dated lower right.
17 1/2 x 23 3/4 in., 21 1/4 x 27 1/2 in. (frame).
Note: Estes traveled to Antarctica in 2007. His journey inspired a series of paintings that evoke the unsparing arctic environment, its frigid waters, bright light and cool isolation. In contrast with his cityscapes of compressed reflections, in this series Estes presents very accomplished landscape paintings that underscore the environmental issues plaguing Antarctica.
