Elias Rivera is a painter whose work both creates timeless images and displays virtuosity of technique.
During his long career, Rivera has painted the human drama as it unfolds in settings as varied as civil-
rights demonstrations, subways, rodeos, and the marketplaces of Guatemala, Mexico and Peru. His
classical training and Old Master technique evoke a true narrative quality rarely seen in contemporary
realist painting. Regardless of the particulars of culture, place and time that appear in each painting,
Elias Rivera consistently captures the essence of humanity.
Provenance: Originally painted for Ristorante La Traviata, Santa Fe, NM
