Dennis Puleston Signed Original Watercolor Framed and Matted with Archival Glass

Location:

Louisville, KY

Description:

This beautiful original watercolor painting by Dennis Puleston (died June 8, 2001) features a stunning depiction of birds in their natural habitat. It is a one-of-a-kind piece that is sure to captivate any art or nature lover. The painting is signed by the artist and comes framed and matted with archival glass to ensure its preservation. The medium-sized painting measures 26 inches in height and 31 inches in width. It is an original piece, not a licensed reproduction, but does not come with a Certificate of Authenticity (I inherited it and while beautiful, I simply have no place to hang it in my home so best to let someone else have it that might appreciate it more!). This painting would make a great addition to any collection and is perfect for those who appreciate realism and nature themes.Mr, Puleston was a British-American environmentalist, adventurer, and designer. He is known for playing a key part in securing a nationwide ban in the United States on the use of the pesticide DDT, a decision regarded as the first important success of the emerging environmental movement. As a result of this ban, he helped save his favorite bird, the osprey, from extinction in North America. He was co-founder and the first chairman of the Environmental Defense Fund. Puleston also co-designed the DUKW, an amphibious vehicle used in World War II, and was a best selling author, in addition to a painter, having penned his first book, Blue Water Vagabond: Six Years' Adventure at Sea, about his six years of travels by sea, in 1939.
