Angel of the Waters

One of New York City’s most beloved landmarks — the Bethesda Fountain in Central Park — serves as the subject of this elegant vertical watercolor. Painted from a photo taken on a visit to New York with her daughter, Marian was inspired in part by the work of acclaimed architectural watercolorist Thomas Schaller. The luminous transparency of watercolor perfectly captures the play of light on water and stone. A sophisticated work equally at home in a city apartment or a suburban living room.
