About the Item
If you’re a New Orleanian you have seen many pictures in this style, but this is the artist who originated it, and he is still incomparable. Though the great majority of what you see out there is prints, this is an ORIGINAL. Meiersdorff made a lot of art about jazz, but here, he celebrates the other most important aspect of life in the Crescent City: FOOD! Is this Chef Paul Prudhomme? I remember him later, with a shorter and more grizzled beard. At any rate, it’s a humourous, wonderfully painted conversation piece about one of the many glories of New Orleans — the food — and I wouldn’t be surprised if this one sells to one of the many who, while not living here, come here MOSTLY to eat!

About the Gallery
Guy Lyman Fine Art
My name is Guy Lyman, and I’ve been learning about, making and collecting art since my teens. These days, in addition to painting, I search the world for superb art that is undervalued and pass the savings on to discerning collectors. I offer a money-back guarantee on everything I sell.
