During the recent uproar and rescue efforts on behalf of the Gross Clinic, artist Charles Cushing undertook to paint a full-scale replica of the Eakins masterpiece. Charles just emailed that the work is done. And it’s for sale, art lovers, a veritable painted piece of art activism!
Here’s Charles’s note and information on how to get hold of him.
Dear Friends, Patrons, & Fellow Artists,
This is an image of my recently completed copy of Thomas Eakins’ “The Gross Clinic”. I commenced the painting about 3 months ago during the fundraising campaign, as a way to raise awareness, and also because it was a rewarding experience in its own right.
This is the full-sized 8′ x 6.5′ ft oil on canvas. The painting is for sale, and I am seeking opportunities to display it. If you are interested or have suggestions, please contact me directly at 267 679 7853. You can also visit my website.
