Terry Daugherty High Desert Settlement Landscape (1988) | Signed Oil Painting
Viridian Eclection
The Piece
A small settlement spreads across a high desert hillside beneath a broad, pale mountain. A cluster of buildings gathers at the lower left, linked by a narrow trestle or walkway, with more structures scattered sparsely up the slope. The mountain dominates the background in a softly modeled, rounded form. Brushwork is controlled and even, with fine texture in the grasses and hillside and a lighter, more diffuse touch in the sky, and the muted palette of tans, soft greens and pale blues conveys distance and elevation. The canvas is presented in a wood frame with a gilt liner.

Why It Belongs in Your Home
A calm, spacious view of land and settlement that rewards time. Its horizontal format and subdued palette suit a living room, an office or a hallway where quiet and scale matter more than bright color.
Keep it out of direct sun and away from heat and humidity. Dust the frame with a soft, dry brush, and leave any cleaning of the painted surface to a conservator.

Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
