Open Outcry

Signed “M. Gaylor” (Lower Right)
Oil On Canvas

The Exhilaration And Angst Of Open-Outcry Trading Is Captured Masterfully In This Original Oil By Marcia Gaylor. A Thunderous Atmosphere Of Exuberant Traders Shouting, Gesturing And Signaling Bids On The Crowded Trading Floor Draws The Viewer Into The Rowdy, Energetic Scene With Vivid Color, Bold Brush Strokes And Compelling Emotion. Inspired By The Immense Pressures Of Open-Outcry Trading, Gaylor Sought To Bring Outsiders Face-To-Face With The Bellowing Voices, Roaring Atmosphere And Shrewd Professionals Bolstering The International Economy. A Relic Of The Past, Few Stock Exchanges Use Open-Outcry Trading Today.
