This is an original oil painting on canvas by Monte Colgren entitled, "Encounter". This painting is an American piece of abstract expressionism and was shown at an exhibition of notable northwest artists sponsored by the Seattle Art Museum in 1963. The back of the frame is tagged with the Seattle Art Museum's information about the painting and artist. The painting comes framed and ready to hang.
Colgren was primarily known as a ceramic artist from the Northwest although he was also a painter and musician.
In very good shape. The painting appears to have been well taken care of. The frame seems fairly old and has some fading and shows some signs of age but there are no structural issues.
With the frame it measures 36.75" wide, 1.5" deep, 28.75" high
Without the frame it measures 36.25" wide, 1" deep, 28.25" high
