Known for her "magic realism" mood paintings, adobe architecture, and rural New Mexico scenes this piece depicts historic adobe ruins and rustic wooden fencing against a vibrant blue and cloud-streaked sky. Signed in teal in the lower right "Steider" with a copyright symbol. Includes the original signed Certificate of Authenticity documentation sheet affixed to the reverse, dated June 1, 1982, detailing the title, 14x18 dimensions, egg tempera medium, file number 80-800, and execution date of May 1980. Framed in a rustic distressed wood-grain frame with an inner fabric liner. Dimensions: 26.5” x 22.5”. Condition: Used. The egg tempera painting on the gesso panel is in very good, well-preserved condition with vibrant colors and stable pigment.
