Horse Carriage in Chicago #1

an “Early Bernie” watercolor

MARTHA MARKS COMMENTS ON BERNARD MARKS’ BRIGHT “HORSE CARRIAGE IN CHICAGO #1”:

This is one in a series of three watercolor paintings that Bernie made en plein air (outdoors, on site) in the heart of Chicago’s Gold Coast.

Bernie made each of these paintings along the Lake Michigan coast and Michigan Ave. He sold the originals at art fairs in the suburbs. The rest he allowed a gallery in Santa Fe to sell, after we moved to New Mexico in 2002.

As a result, I have none of the original “Early Bernies” from Chicago and only the few digital photos listed below, which are good enough to reproduce as prints.

These come with our “Little Gems” custom-cut mat special offer: “Horse Carriage in Chicago #1,” “Horse Carriage in Chicago #2,” and “Horse Carriage in Chicago #3”

These come with our “Early Bernie” 25% discount: “Oak Street Beach,” Water Tower in Chicago,” and Water Tower and 7Up Truck”


This “Little Gem” giclée print on thick archival paper comes with a custom-cut white mat that fits into a standard 11″ x 14″ frame.

Contact Martha Marks if you have any questions. And let her know if you’d like one or more of these lovely prints sent to someone else as a gift.
