Based on a \u200b2010\u00a0<\/span>painting, this estate released silkscreen, Fed and Lucy,<\/em> encapsulates some of the essential elements of George Rodrigue\u2019s work.The work depicts two Blue Dogs in a landscape\u200b, a familiar setting for Rodrigue’s work<\/span>. \u200bFred and Lucy<\/em>\u00a0also highlights Rodrigue’s affinity for color. In the painting Rodrigue<\/span>\u00a0used variations of cool toned colors to \u200bcreate<\/span>\u00a0this \u200blush<\/span>\u00a0scene. The ground contains both light and dark shades of green, the sky\u2019s different shades of blue give the viewer an opportunity to consider the landscape\u2019s light source, and the two Blue Dogs are done in different shades of blue adding to the work\u2019s visual appeal.\u00a0\u200bThose painted details have been thoughtfully rendered in this silkscreen print.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The work\u2019s title, Fred and Lucy<\/em>, could be a reference to characters from the beloved television show I Love Lucy<\/em>. Fred and Ethel Mertz were the best friends of the titular Lucille Ball and her husband Desi Arnaz. Perhaps the two dogs in this print are different colors because Fred and Lucy were not a couple. Rodrigue often referenced elements of American popular culture in his work, especially popular culture created during the mid 20th century. In his printwork he\u2019s referenced figures like Marilyn Monroe and Gary Cooper, alluding to Lucille Ball would fit\u200b well<\/span> within that aspect of Rodrigue\u2019s style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
