    Est: $400 - $600

    ROBERT O'HEARN (1921-2016) Pair of scenic designs for "Of Mice and Men," the opera. Performed by The New York City Opera, October, 1983. Woods / Scenes 1.1 and 3.2 and Barn / Scene 3.1 are both rendered in watercolor, crayon, and wash. 293x584 mm; 11 1/2x23 inches, on 14 1/2x26-inch boards, both with O'Hearn's stamp on verso, and "Barn" signed by him, lower margin, with opera title at left.

The ballet version of John Steinbeck's famous novel premiered in Seattle in 1970 and enjoyed numerous revivals before coming to New York. With a libretto by Carlisle Floyd, music by Christopher Keene, and direction by Frank Corsaro, this production received lukewarm reviews, though O'Hearn's set designs were praised.
