Lot Essay

“She produced a late group of upbeat representational pictures in warm palettes that manage to transcend their ordinary subject matter and morph into quite captivating compositions. Her love of drama, whether at the racetrack, the opera, or in her art, turned her paintings into something special.” – Gail Levin (G. Levin quoted in Lynne Drexler: The First Decade, exh. cat., New York, Mnuchin Gallery, 2022, p. 22)
