Donated by: Arthur Moniz Gallery

Stern Trawler is a signed, framed, and numbered giclée print created by beloved New Bedford artist Arthur Moniz who passed away in 2018. Stern Trawler would be a wonderful addition to any collection. With frame, the piece measures 23″ x 17.”

Arthur Moniz was born in 1945 in New Bedford, Massachusetts. He attended school in New Bedford and then went on to Massachusetts College of Art and the Museum School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. His paintings depict a wide range of interests, from Florida to Japan. Perhaps his best loved work depicts New Bedford’s iconic fishing fleet.  His work has been exhibited in the Azores, Japan, and throughout the United States.

Moniz’s work combines graphite drawing with transparent watercolor washes over the highly detailed renderings creating images which are soft and subtle yet show remarkable details and textures. He also worked in oils and pen and ink to create works of art with the same attention to the fine details and textures of the subjects.
