Rare, excellent, highly detailed, original oil on canvas in excellent condition. No restoration or damage at all. Appears to have original period frame. This one is awesome!!!
Painting shows catch of fish on a rocky shore with a fly fishing rod, and a frog looking on.
Catch appears to include lake perch, walleye, and northern pike, on the shores of a Wisconsin lake.
Signed in lower left corner and dated 1886 - which would have been painted in Wisconsin just 6 years before the artist's death in Fond du lac, WI.
This painting is considered one of the artist's most detailed, and finest works.
Perfect for the Wisconsin Art Collector and fly fisherman! Know one???
