JOHN SHERMAN BAYSIDE RED TREE
Est: $1,900 - $2,200
John Sherman Large 36"x36" - Bayside Red Trees - Acrylic on Canvas Painting. Gallery Wrapped Canvas in excellent condition. Measures 36"x36"x1 1/2". Weight 7 pds. John Sherman describes his paintings as breakthroughs from the archetypal world. Others have described them as psychologically significant works of contemplative artistry. He also describes himself as a participatory expressionist, an artist with a self-conscious rapport with the phenomenal world. His paintings utilize texture, color and symbolism to produce works or representational expressionism, sometimes crossing the edge into abstraction. Not formally trained in the fine arts, Shermans methods of constructions and fabrication are largely self-taught, but informed by careful study of modern media using stable archival processes. Most of his paintings are multi-layered constructions of collage, acrylic, sand and other complementary media. The surfaces are progressively built up and sanded down and frequently "cracked" using one or more of 6 different techniques. The final layers may include thin glazes of oil and varnish, hand rubbed into the surface. Sherman enjoys working with clients on commissioned requests and has painted for private collectors and artists in the film and music industries. His work is in numerous private collections around the United States. He is represented by The Hunter-Wolff Gallery in Colorado Springs Colorado and The Mary Martin Gallery, Broad Street, Charleston SC. PROVENANCE: A Private Charleston SC Estate. ***Pickup only or Shipping on furniture offered through the On the Go Transport 843-360-7472, Outward Bound 413-854-3676, The UPS store 843-202-0141 or locally AJ Williams & Sons 843-442-0462.

Sherman, John. 2 Items. ++ ALS, related to a meeting planned for the first week of September, 1867. Dated "Aug. 20/67." Recipient's name not entirely legible, but last name may be "Williams" or "Wilham." 7 7/8" x 5". On paper with printed rule, [1] page of text, subsequent 3 pages blank. Very good, reinforcement to inner edge of 2nd and 3rd pages (both of which are blank), not visible from the page which contains letter's text. Pencil notation to upper edge of final blank page. ++ Signed card. 1 7/8" x 3 5/8". Removal evidence on verso, smearing of ink, image side otherwise near fine. ++ John Sherman (1823-1900), brother of William Tecumseh Sherman, served as a Republican member of the House of Representatives from 1855 to 1861, at which time he filled the Senate seat formerly held by Salmon P. Chase. As senator, Sherman played a key role in passage of the Morrill Tariff. After the United States ended payments in gold and silver in 1862, John Sherman was the only Senator to advocate the issuance of paper money and making it legal tender during the bill's debate on the floor of the Senate. Later in his career, while serving as Treasury Secretary under Rutherford B. Hayes, Sherman oversaw the redemption fund for the paper money; the fund, which accumulated $140 million before payments were to be made, was successful largely because the value of paper money had gradually approached the value of specie. Sherman unsuccessfully sought the Republican Presidential nomination in 1880, and was reelected to the Senate that same year.
