William Acheff's highly realistic paintings of Southwest historical and ethnic artifacts convey nostalgia and a peaceful, meditative quality.

Classically trained in San Francisco, he moved to Taos in 1973 and continues to paint in this widely recognized, distinctive way, often blending artifacts and traditions of the past with contemporary items and settings. <br><br>Tesque Jar evinces a clay-body jar (olla) from the Pueblo of Tesuque, Tesugeh Owingeh ("Village of the narrow place of cottonwood trees"), located in northern New Mexico. Their ancestral homelands cover the entirety of O'gah Po'oge (Santa Fe), and the pottery, much of it from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, is highly prized by collectors.

מקור ומקור
אוסף פרטי
ציוריו הריאליסטיים מאוד של ויליאם אשף של חפצים היסטוריים ואתניים דרום-מערביים משדרים נוסטלגיה ואיכות שלווה ומדיטטיבית. כשחשף את עבודותיו בתערוכת יחיד ב-1978, האיכויות האשליות המלוטשות והשלמות המציאותית מצאו מעגל קרוב של אספנים המאוהבים בציור קלאסי של trompe l'oeil.

נולד בשנת 1947 באנקורג', אלסקה, הוא ממוצא גרוזיני, רוסי, סקוטי, הולנדי ואלסקה-אתבסקנית. הוא עבר הכשרה קלאסית בסן פרנסיסקו, עבר לטאוס בשנת 1973 וממשיך לצייר בדרך ייחודית ומוכרת זו, לעתים קרובות תוך שילוב חפצים ומסורות מן העבר עם פריטים ותפאורה עכשוויים.

צנצנת Tesque מציגה צנצנת גוף חימר (olla) מהפואבלו של טסוק, Tesugeh Owingeh ("הכפר של המקום הצר של עצי כותנה"), הממוקם בצפון ניו מקסיקו. מולדת אבותיהם מכסה את כל אוגה פוגה (סנטה פה), וכלי החרס, רובם מסוף המאה התשע עשרה ותחילת המאה העשרים, מוערכים מאוד על ידי אספנים.
