Wednesday evening I was lucky enough to attend the opening of the Metro Show at the Metropolitan Pavilion. The show was heavily folk art (not my favorite), but with some other pieces thrown in for diversity. Here are my some of my favorite objects from the show...
This iron snake was by far my favorite piece... it's coloration, scale (it was probably 3 feet long), and sense of movement all added to its appeal. I would be more than willing to let him move in with me...
I loved the colors of this vintage painting entitled "Les Competiteurs" by Leonard Nelson...
And finally these...
A set of 12 19th century watercolors of masks from China's Peking Opera... I'm not necessarily one for Asian art, but these are amazing.
Look forward to a post on the Winter Antiques Show later in the week!
