- Lot Description
Mel Crawford (Canadian, B. 1925) "Philippines" Signed lower left. Original Mixed Media painting on Illustration Board.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the U.N. 20c Philippines Flags of the U.N. Series stamp issued September 24, 1982.
When Magellan first landed in the Philippines in 1563, he saw a land filled with dark green jungles, delicate purple orchids, and sparkling white beaches. In the centuries since Magellan's visit, the natural, pristine beauty of the land has remained. Moreover, this magnificent labyrinth of islands contains one of the most varied collections of natural resources of any country in the Pacific. From the thick forests of "Philippine Mahogany" to the gold and silver mines in the South, the resources of the Philippines offer a sound foundation on which the dreams of development can be built. Today, those dreams are well on their way to becoming reality for the roughly 7100 islands that form one of Asia's leading nations. The gleaming towers of Manila not only reflect the perfect blue water of the bay, but also the fact that the city is one of the most advanced in Asia. The inhabitants of the Philippines, diverse as the many bright seashells found on the beaches, often choose to preserve their traditional way of life in spite of modernization. For example, deep in the jungles of the southern islands live some of the most primitive tribes in the world who subsist by eating only food that they gather that day. In the South, the Muslim Moros, following traditional methods, still dive into the seas for the treasured pearls. The motive seems clear: this charming land cherishes its past so that it can better adapt technology to meet the needs of its people.
