Recent North Carolina estate sale find. This listing is for an absolutely beautiful 1980’s Theorem signed by the artist, Anne Wiest. Looks to be a hand painted original frame with the piece under glass. We did not open the back of the paper sealed frame; however, there is a small rip on the backer paper most likely from another frame leaning against the piece. Has absolutely no impact to the piece nor the presentation as this is simply construction paper on the back-side. Under glass, it looks as if the work was painted on a cotton fabric, which would be typical of Anne’s works. Excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or stains to the frame (only an insignificant and tiny mark or two) and the Theorem itself is in outstanding condition. Please review all photos for overall condition, design, and dimensions. Anne was born in Plymouth, Pa. The daughter of the William and Clara James. She married Carlos Wiest and moved to. Was very well-known for her theorem paintings, community involvement in the arts and education and participated in the Bicentennial Arts and Crafts show held in Philadelphia in 1976. Anne Wiest passed away in 2016 at the age of 95. The item “Signed Anne Wiest Pennsylvania Folk Art Theorem Painted on Fabric Birds in Tree” is in sale since Tuesday, December 3, 2019.
