This large 24″ x 38″ color photograph of a pear tree is the work of the late winemaker Sean Thackrey (1942-2022). We framed it close in stained walnut that complements the deep greens of the print. It’s a quiet, subtly shaped 3″ wide profile that curls up at the back edge and has a narrow cushion at the sight edge. Around that cushion is a slender ovolo carved to harmonize with the branches. An 1/8″ slip is finished with bronze powder to match the fruit. Eric Johnson’s excellent work.

I love the simplicity and delicacy, they really go with the photo.
