The new auction has begun. Click on the thumbnail to have a closer look.
Some of you may recognize this line of buildings as the heart of Williams College, a small, little-known institution of higher learning in the hinterlands of northwestern Massachusetts.
This townscape was among a series of illustrations commissioned for the Fall 2008 issue of the Williams alumni magazine and is the first piece of published work that Robbi has ever offered up for sale. Apparently, she’s too weary from giving birth to draw something new this week. If you would like to join me thinking this a fairly lame excuse, please feel free to do so in a comment.
Note that since Robbi never intended to sell this illustration, it was painted on a piece of paper that is not exactly square. The upper left corner is not really a corner at all, but more of a gentle slope. Still, the piece could be nicely framed if that is what you’re in to.
Happy bidding.
Did you make prints? Or, have any plans to?
JM,
This is a good idea, and we’re considering it. Stay tuned…
I would like a print. Unless I get the original. I was in the early part of the bidding war, but someone is VERY determined! We shall see…
Like Clare, I tried to bid but it went beyond my meager budget awhile ago…I think a print would be great though! You know EphBlog would promote it for you :)
