Oil on canvas
In her original oil on canvas titled Casablanca Declaration, American historical artist Marcia Gaylor vividly captures Roosevelt and Churchill at a time when the fate of the world hung in the balance. Their historic and often contentious discussions culminated in the Casablanca Declaration, which demanded nothing less than the unconditional surrender of the enemy. In January 1943, American President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill convened at the Casablanca Conference in a seaside resort in Morocco with the goal of strategizing the Allied forces' victory over the major WWII Axis powers: Germany, Italy and Japan. These formidable leaders of the free world, once political adversaries, had forged a bond of deep respect and personal friendship during Churchill's visit to the White House, just two weeks after the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
Based in California, Marcia Gaylor is known for her historical scenes that celebrate the power of capitalism. Before pursuing painting as a career, she earned a business degree and an MBA from the University of Southern California, and her financial background clearly influenced the direction of her art later in her life. Most of her paintings focus on the economic history of the United States as she captures the financial heart of the country's largest cities. The result is a body of work that stands in colorful tribute to the economy and the power of capital. Today, she remains an active member of the California Art Club, Oil Painters of America, Women Painters of America, as well as the American Impressionist Society.
