Item Description

A Friend of WXXI offers a signed lithograph by Irving Amen, titled PROPHET. The artist's bold style has captured the prophet as he contemplates a passage from the text on his lap. But Amen has also captured the character of the prophet, the sense that this is a man you would like to lift from the canvas and learn from what he has to say. The piece is rendered in black, gray, yellow, orange and blue. It is matted in white and mounted behind glass in a gold contemporary frame that measures 21 x 27 inches. Irving Amen is an American painter. He has studied in Paris, and has taught at such schools as the Pratt Institute and Notre Dame University. A positive attitude, love of mankind, and religious background emanate from his work.
