Mercato di Cuoio (leather market) by classical artist George Hallmark

Mercato di Cuoio (leather market) by George Hallmark available from Prickly Pear Galleries.

 

Artist George Hallmark says, "On a trip to northern Italy several years ago, I was at once impressed with the wonderful architecture. This scene is a corner of the leather market, and the lady with customized bicycle seems unaware she is being watched by a centuries-old statue." - George Hallmark.

 

The textures, architecture and use of light make this painting truly outstanding. It was chosen as the image for the cover of January/February 2008 "Art of the West" magazine. 
 

Canvas released 2008.
