Gaetano Esposito




Here, the watercolor has been presented taken it
out of its' encadrement. Then colors are even more
strong and there are no reflections of the protecting
glass anymore. A beautiful piece with a signature
that puzzled us in the first place.


Here a close up from the head of this fisherman
is presented. Click on it to enlarge.




Here still photographed behind the glass....


The bad of the rather thick piece of paper the
watercolor has been made on. Some slight traces
of glue I think but I left it that way as it is not
visible on the front. An extra piece of acid free
paper behind it is always advisable.


Not only the watercolor itself is valuable. The fact
that most likely the original encadrement is still there
is an extra of course.


Presented here is an oil painting of the same artist
and from the same man. You can use "Google Images"
to look for similar pictures on the internet.


Here the description is given but more interesting:
The signature seems to be exactly the same: It starts
with the immediately recognizable prefix "G" and
as is the case on the watercolor, the rest is hardly
readable or maybe even wasn't there in the first 
place. I regard the watercolor here as being
 superior to the oil painting in its' details.
