Ionel Talpazan was an outsider artist from Romania who sold his visionary works of UFOs and life in outer space on the sidewalks of Manhattan. Talpazan claimed that one night in the Romanian countryside, when he was 8, a strange, hovering shape slowly descended from the sky, enveloping him in a celestial blue light, and then disappeared. The experience haunted him and became the source of his art. Sight 8 1/2 x 11 1/2". Frame (glass) 13 1/4 x 17 1/4".
