Fine Art by Jerry Schurr, silkscreen, Half Dome
is a signed limited edition serigraph by the American artist Jerry Schurr (born 1940). A serigraph is a form of silkscreen printing. The artwork, created in 1982, depicts a landscape that was inspired by Yosemite Valley, a place Schurr considered one of his favorites.
Schurr's style is characterized by the use of multiple layers and colors to create landscapes, and his early works are known for their "hard-edged" quality. He first began creating serigraphs in 1971 and has won several awards for his art. The artwork itself is a depiction of the Yosemite Valley as it may have appeared at the end of the last great Ice Age, with the valley floor still covered by a large lake left by a receding glacier. |
