A quiet sketch of figures sitting among the pigeons of Seattle's Pioneer Square by Guy Anderson, noted "mystic painter" of the Northwest School art movement. LIFE magazine called Anderson one of the Northwest's "Big Four," along with Mark Tobey, Morris Graves, and Kenneth Callahan. Anderson's artwork, often figural in subject, took spiritual inspiration from cultural sources ranging from Hindu texts to Greek myth to indigenous Pacific Northwest iconography. His work is held in numerous major museum collections, including the Seattle Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
Signed to the bottom right corner. Accompanied by a 2004 letter from Deryl Walls, the owner of Gallery Dei Gratia and executor of Anderson's estate. Housed in a glazed frame measuring 38" x 31 1/2".
