A masterful display of Wayne Thiebaud's signature approach to everyday consumer objects, this colorful etching and aquatint presents a collection of cigars with meticulous attention to light, shadow, and form. Thiebaud's skilled draftsmanship transforms these ordinary tobacco products into a study of texture and tactile richness, rendered in warm, nuanced tones on Somerset paper. The work reflects his enduring fascination with commonplace American goods, elevating the mundane into a visually compelling still life through the precise and expressive qualities of the printmaking medium.
