Gold Rush - Limited Edition by Eric Christensen

Gold Rush by Eric Christensen

Northern California's Gold Rush didn't end in the 1850s. This pivotal moment in history was only the beginning of a new "gold rush" for something equally precious—fine wine. In Gold Rush, hyperrealist artist Eric Christensen captures the region’s rich wine heritage with a stunning composition featuring a collection of Northern California's most coveted Chardonnay wines: Grgich Hills Estate, Peter Michael "Ma Belle Fille", Rombauer Vineyards, and Far Niente.

Set against the backdrop of Northern California's iconic rolling hills, this exquisite still life showcases not only the finest golden-hued wines but also an elegant spread of fresh fruit and cheese, embodying the essence of California’s continued "rush" for luxury and quality. Christensen’s exceptional attention to detail and use of light creates a scene that is almost tangible, inviting you into a moment of refined celebration.

Gallery-Wrapped Canvas Giclée
This giclée on canvas features a mirrored image on the sides, giving it a seamless, finished look. It arrives stretched and ready to hang with a picture wire attached to 1.5" deep stretcher bars, creating a professional presentation. Gallery-wrapped canvases are also ideal for modern float framing styles. Should you wish to upgrade your order with a custom float frame, please contact us and we will assist you in enhancing your order.

Metal Sublimation Float Mount
Using a sublimation process, the ink on this metal print is heat-pressed directly into the coating, offering exceptional durability and color vibrancy. The contemporary float mount creates a striking effect, giving the illusion that the artwork is floating off the wall. This ready-to-hang piece comes with a hidden metal float mount frame on the back of the art for a sleek, frameless display that’s perfect for modern interiors. Christensen metal prints may also be framed; please contact us for pricing on ordering this piece without the float mount for custom framing.

Gold Rush is a masterpiece that celebrates not only California’s historic Gold Rush but also its continued pursuit of excellence in winemaking. Whether displayed on canvas or metal, this piece will add sophistication and elegance to any collection, making it a treasured homage to the riches of Northern California’s wine country.

The original watercolor has been sold, but Eric Christensen is available for commissioned work upon request.
