Douglas Hofmann Blue Shawl Lithograph Print Artist Proof Museum Mount
Description
A solitary figure draped in a luminous blue shawl commands the composition with quiet intimacy, rendered in Hofmann's characteristic soft realism where warm flesh tones and cool fabric hues achieve a delicate, almost suspended equilibrium. The lithographic medium suits his sensibility perfectly, allowing subtle gradations of tone and a painterly depth that rewards close attention.
Douglas Hofmann, the Baltimore-born figurative painter and printmaker, built an international following through his mastery of idealized female portraiture — works that draw on classical European tradition while retaining a distinctly contemporary stillness. This example is numbered 20/95 from the original edition, is hand-signed by the artist, and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
Presented with museum-quality mounting that honors both the scale and the refinement of the image, this piece is well suited to a collector who values disciplined figurative work with lasting aesthetic presence.
