Set against the elegant backdrop of Restoration Hardware Yountville, Holding Court by Eric Christensen is a stunning tribute to Napa Valley’s world-renowned wine culture. This refined scene showcases an array of notable Super Tuscan wines, including Solaia and Tignanello, accompanied by the celebrated Il Barone from Castello di Amorosa. The outdoor setting, adorned with a glowing crystal chandelier and luxurious furnishings, provides a peaceful moment of indulgence with wine, fruit, and cheese under the Napa sun.

This limited edition giclée on canvas is available in two sizes (30x40" and 36x48"). Each piece is signed and numbered by the artist, with the Artist Proof and Publisher Proof editions featuring an exclusive original sketch on the back of the artwork, making these editions even more collectible. Holding Court offers the impeccable hyperrealism that Christensen is known for, capturing every reflection and subtle light play with masterful precision.

Holding Court captures the essence of Napa’s refined lifestyle and is a perfect addition to any fine art or wine enthusiast’s collection.

Artist statement about the piece:
This setting is reminiscent of an Italian castle from the Renaissance, replete with the trappings of the king’s courtyard garden:  sculptured topiaries, a glistening waterfall and crystal chandelier hovering over adornments of gold on a table laden with riches.  This royal celebration features two Super Tuscans and a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, surrounded by a complementary pairing of luscious local fruit and imported European cheese.  If one were to plan such a festival, there is clearly no better place to be “Holding Court.”

  • Signed and Numbered (SN): Limited to just 150 pieces in the 30x40" and 50 in the 36x48" size, each artwork is hand-signed by Eric Christensen, adding a personal and authentic touch to this exquisite creation.

  • Artist Proof (AP): Limited to only 20 pieces in the 30x40" size and 10 pieces in the 36x48" size, this select edition not only features the artist’s signature but also includes an original sketch on the back of the canvas. This edition provides a rare glimpse into Christensen’s creative process, making it a treasured addition to any collection.

  • Publisher Proof (PP): Also limited to only 10 pieces in the 30x40" size and  the 28x42" size, this highly coveted edition includes an original sketch on the reverse side, signed and numbered by the artist. It’s a true collector’s item, offering an intimate connection to the artist’s work.
