Title
Venetian Goddess
Artist
Michael Durst
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
This sensuous work is a rendering of an image of beautiful lady from a by-gone era, when the Ziegfeld Follies became the epitome of glamour and sophistication...and when "naughty" became "nice." This is a portrait of Dorothy Flood, a starlette in the 1920's and 30's, after Joseph Urban's Venetian Scene.
The painting has been framed in a gold frame to enhance its Art Deco persona.
