| I have received lots of help from those
who knew Robert Wood, as well as those who love his art. I'd like to thank
two of them. First, I'd like to acknowledge Mr. Merlin Moore, who has provided
personal material and photographs in an effort to help preserve the marvelous
legacy of Robert Wood. Thanks, Merlin. You are a guardian angel to this
site.
I would also like to offer my gratitude to Violet
Sigoloff Flume, whose book "The Last Mountain", tells the story of Robert
Wood's life, and from same book many of these images were scanned (with
permission). Thanks, Violet, you're the best. - Charla Colaw

I get many contacts about how to tell an original Robert Wood. First, carefully remove the frame. Look on the lower front edge for printed words. Any printed words would indicate a print. Some were even printed on canvas, and people often mistake them for originals. When in doubt, have it appraised. Many of Robert Woods paintings were licensed for reproduction by the Donald Art Company, and the letters D.A.C. in fine print on the edge indicates these. New Robert Wood prints can be obtained at www.postergallery.com Many of his original paintings are signed on the back, and stamped with "Reproduction Rights Retained by Artist". Also note that Robert Wood has signed as "Trebor", "R Wood" and as "G. Day", as well as not signing at all. Watch for these! They are usually cheaper than the Robert Woods. |
