Signed in the lower right. Frame 37" x 32". "The energetic, personable Faxon was an avid art collector as well as an artist in his own right, and his Birmingham home was a true showplace, with a priceless collection of sculpture, paintings, stained glass and oriental rugs, ranging from ancient pieces to modern works, including his own. He even had his own art exhibition in the State Capitol back in 1965, which featured his abstract paintings." Provenance: Estate of Jack Faxon, Michigan Senator, and creator of the Michigan Council for the Arts.
