The one liter-size bourbon bottle, said Woodford Reserve, sports imagery from Louisville artist Thomas William Foerster. In his work a snow scene showcases
the middle of winter at the Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, Kentucky. The impressionistic image features nine bourbon barrels resting on the barrel run in front of the distillery. Covered in a small amount of snow, the barrels are making their way to the warehouse where the bourbon will mature for several years. In the background, the sun is setting in hues of golden orange.
Foerster, for those unfamiliar with him, is self taught and has been painting in oil for nearly twenty-five years. His works focus primarily on “landscapes and cityscapes in a realistic style with a hint of impressionism. When painting, he aims to capture a realistic scene but still demonstrate vibrant brushwork and confident color choices.”
