The work of art is on stretch canvas and ready to hang, hand signed, dated, and titled “Rock Face” by the artist on the verso.

Hermann Lederle is a critically admired artist currently living and working in Los Angeles. He studied in Germany and received a formal fine arts education at the San Francisco Art Institute. His work has been widely exhibited in prominent galleries in the U.S. and Europe and may be found in the private collections of notables including Ringo Starr and Eric Stolz, Cal Zecca, Gabor Csupo.
Lederle’s artistic process begins with an initial grid-like foundation. On that, he layers an image, perhaps fish, birds, or human faces. The oil paint on gold leaf has a dramatic effect. The appearance of the painting varies relative to the lighting in the room. Indirect light brings the gold to the foreground and the painted imagery becomes silhouetted as if backlit, while indirect light the gold recedes, and the details of the figure emerge with more prominence, as if the light is inverting the painting as a whole. The final effect is harmonious.
