I love Kuhnert's work! Anyone know a link to any for sale here in the U.S.?
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling
That is the most shocking piece of art I've ever seen. So graphic and a true aspect of Africa that the 'greenys' would faint over or be DRT.
Shortly I'm putting up some watercolors from a Julius Wolf that were done in Ethopia back in the '50s. Don't know a thing about him despite looking everywhere. A relative gave them to me and I think I'm going to put them up for grabs.
I've got to see the other paintings from the 'man eater' artist.
Thanks for the link, Kathi. I have had numerous discussions with artist colleagues over the history of this painting. Your link sets the record straight,

I wonder how much a painting like that sells for. Was a price published ? I know my wife would not let me hang it up in the living room. It's such a shocker
Not all art is meant to be hung in the living room! For example, either one of those two pieces would look pretty good in my gunroom - right next to the coyote skulls!

Saw the Banovich in his last mailing; it's one of a few that I hope my wife selects from for Christmas. I'm saving a space between a kudu and gemsbok right over the computer in my office for the picture.
They deliver two buffalo -- a floor pedestal and a European, and a Coke's Hartebeest and Wildebeest next week (rest is going home). Office is starting to take shape.
