Luxury Jewelry, French Furniture, and Iconic Artworks Featured in Upcoming Crescent City Auction Gallery November Sale

Takao Tanabe is an abstract painter and printmaker famous for his landscapes. Tanabe’s landscapes are devoid of typical elements like cars or architectural installations. Instead, his works are notable for their brilliant use of light. The upcoming Crescent City Auction Gallery three-day sale presents a serigraph by Takao Tanabe. The piece displays Tanabe’s mastery of defining intense horizons. The artwork portrays the land, sky, and horizons through big paint swatches. Tanabe’s works are noteworthy for awakening the British Columbian landscape through their minimalist nature. Also featured is an oil painting titled Nature Morte by Max Albert Carlier. His still-life paintings feature the Neo-Dutch painting technique and utilize a warm color palette.
