HERES AN IMPORTANT SIGNED MODERN ABSTRACT ENAMEL-ON-COPPER PLAQUE / PAINTING BY SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK ARTIST VIRGINIA SALEMME! As you can see from the photographs shown above, Virginia Salemme created a visually striking abstraction comprised of wide undulating lines rendered in dark blue, green, red, white, black, and grey enameling! At the proper angle, the central dark blue enameled shape looks figurative, somewhat like a man with a wide stance and his arms raised upward. The congruent wide undulating lines are the existential reverberations of the man's soul.
