David Brega, "Thomas Jefferson Trompe L'Oeil" oil
Est: $12,000 - $18,000
David Brega, "Thomas Jefferson Trompe L'Oeil" oil on board, 2004. Signed and dated lower right, "David Brega '04". Board: 43.25"H x 33.75"W; Frame: 51.25"H x 42.375"W. PROVENANCE: Hammer Galleries, New York (label verso). From the Collection of Sam Wyly, Dallas, Texas (acquired from the above in 2004). NOTE: This painting was a special commission by Mr. Wyly and incorporates several key elements of what Jefferson considered to be his milestone historical achievements. The portrait itself is a reproduction of Rembrandt Peale's famous portrait of Jefferson, painted in 1805 and now in the collection of the New York Historical Society. Visible at left behind the painting is a page from Jefferson's "An Act for establishing Religious Freedom," written into law in 1786. At the bottom right, we see a handwritten draft of the Declaration of Independence, with plans for the Rotunda at the University of Virginia just above. Also positioned behind the founding father's likeness we see portions of two letters both from and to the patron's forebears. David Brega (American, b. 1948) is one of the foremost contemporary American practitioners of the trompe l'oeil painting style.

David Brega, "Unfinished Business" oil on board, 1993. Signed and dated top left, "David Brega '93". Board: 26.25"H x 16.5"W; Frame: 33.5"H x 23.625"W. PROVENANCE: Hollis Taggart Galleries, New York (label verso). From the Collection of Sam Wyly, Dallas, Texas (acquired from the above in 1997). EXHIBITED: Museum of Fine Arts, Springfield, Massachusetts, "David Brega and Douglas Brega: Oil and Water," September 20 - December 31, 2000 (label verso); Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art, St. Joseph, Missouri, March 2 - June 6, 2001. NOTE: This whimsical play on Gilbert Stuart's famous unfinished portrait of the first President has several humorous visual asides. Firstly, the noted portrait takes on a postcard form here and is taped to the backside of what appears to be a well-worn piece of furniture. However, not to be outdone by Stuart's original, the ruse is up at the bottom of the work as the wooden texture falls away, giving way to a neutral surface and the punctuation of a gently-folded red dot. David Brega (American, b. 1948) is one of the foremost contemporary American practitioners of the tromp l'oeil painting style.

Exhibitions: North River Arts Society, Marshfield Hills, Massachusetts, "Coming Home, A Holiday Unveiling", December 5, 2009. Other Notes: "Coming Home" depicts the historic GAR Hall, where David Brega has kept his Studio on the second floor loft for more than twenty five years. Painted in a style after turn of the century illustrator-icon, Maxfield Parrish, David captures a snow covered, moonlit night with an ambience not unlike the feeling he creates in his still life and trompe l'oeil paintings. This time we are drawn in by the glow coming from his Studio Windows. We imagine what he might be creating on this quiet winter night.
