Painted by Henry Gauci in 2007, acrylic on canvas, original size 113 x 113 cm. Stargazer was originally a commission for a couple who had just acquired a loft apartment in the City Centre of Leeds. The brief was; something big, striking and with a splash of colour. Here is a brief history of the actual flower. The Stargazer lily was created in 1978 by Mr. Leslie Woodriff, a Lily breeder in California. It is an oriental hybrid lily which he called Stargazer because the blooms faced the sky. It is now fairly common throughout North America. Prints are available please go to Giclee prints or Canvas Prints Page.
