Preston Trombly at the National Arts Club



Preston Trombly with his recent piece Flow- Blue 2009
at the National Arts Club, a stunning example of old New York
in Gramercy Park. It would not be a great hardship
 for me to live in Gramercy Park.  Others share this view.



Like E.A.P above, flanked by T.R  and Woodrow Wilson......



Some enchanting nymphs in the hall.....

 

.... and a stolid burgher whose name escapes me.



There are even spring flowers.

The 18th Annual Roundtable Exhibition continues until April 17th. 10 am- 5pm
Greg and Marquis Galleries
The National Arts Club
15 Gramercy Park South (E.20th St.)

  1. I used to live in Gramercy Park. It is beautiful. Our building shared a key to the park & the rest of the building barely used it which was good for us I guess, though I always found that odd.
    Lovely pics Elizabeth.

  2. Nice portraits! Preston looks so nice.

    I love the word "stolid."

    Is it raining in NYC. It's a nice rainy day here today.
