Landscape 1920 oil on heavy weave canvas 11 x 14” (artist-made canvasboard) – by circa

Description

Antique 11 x 14” oil on heavy weave canvas on thick board (artist-made canvasboard) from circa 1920. It’s never been removed from it’s original frame.

Measures 13 1/8 x 16 1/8” overall with frame. The painting is filthy dirty. Viewing It would be a dramatically different experience if cleaned, varnished with Conserv-Art, and put in an impressive 11 x 14 Plein Air carved 

We discovered this painting in Lambertville, NJ, across from New Hope, Pennsylvania. It’s fresh to the market. 11 x 14 was a standard American Impressionist size that great artists such as George L. Noyes, Charles Kaelin, etc., painted in.

Just because it was found in the area doesn’t necessarily mean this painting was done by a Bucks County / New Hope School or Pennsylvania Impressionist painter. To my eye, it looks like a scene north of here. This painting might be signed (see pictures above), but it’s so dirty that I can’t really determine anything in it’s current state.

I won’t leave feedback for the buyer on this unless they message me and say they want me to. Whatever the painting turns out to be, I know it’ll look like a 10K painting once ‘gallery ready’ and in the right package with carved gold frame and nameplate. It’s not like whatever name becomes associated with this painting will be linked to this listing, which will disappear in time.

The quality of this painting is amazing. Just look at the brushstrokes here. It’s either a very advanced American Impressionist or there’s a chance it’s an early oil by one of the Group Of Seven painters from Canada.

When I do a Google image search with a picture of it, my computer thinks this painting is a Monet (!), and I can see why. But, it’s definitely of North American origin. It’s very possible the artist was one of the Americans in France who stayed near Monet in Giverny or across the river in Vernon.
