Thank you, Sanny, for the excellent tribute to a hugely talented painter, Gari Melchers. I think that his immortal legacy were not only his works but also Belmont, the extraordinary place he left to the nation.
Beautiful painting. I will be watching the video on it in a bit after I get my orders in the mail. Thank you! 🙂

Till you started featuring Gari Melchers, I’d never heard of him. As the video noted, he quickly faded from prominence after his death.

I only recently discovered him – hard to imagine such a talented artist fading from prominence. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Steve. 🙂
