Hilda Field (Castellon) - Pensive Mood - Artist Signed - Original Etching

Hilda Field Castellon, Original Etching titled, "Pensive Mood" Signed 1942. Strong impression, artist signed with a dedication to one of her collectors. New frame and mat.

Hilda Field Castellon was the wife of the famous Spanish American printmaker, Frederico Castellon (1914-1971), Hilda Castellon was a fine and a greatly underrated artist. Part of the reason for the critics' lack of appreciation was no doubt that stylistically her printmaking techniques and imagery were quite similar to that of her husband. Yet, temperamentally their work is not at all similar. Where Frederico Castellon uses his imagery to explore a surreal world of dreams and nightmares, the imagery of Hilda Castellon is based much more upon a personal world of observation. One who recognized the unique qualities of Hilda Castellon's art was none other than Fritz Eichenberg, who wrote that she was " a talented artist in her own right."
